Remmy 700 action
Rifle basix trigger
Outlier/Arken optics 1-8 twist 26" .308 barrel
Arken ep5.
Wheeler direct mount 20 moa scope mount. This thing is all over the internet on clearance. Highly recommend, I think I paid 20$ for it.
Magpul hunter stock.
If you guys haven't checked out outlier barrels you should.
Nitride coated with a lifetime warranty. Lifetime warrant as in if you burn the throat out they'll replace it. (I was floored when Mike told me that!)
Took quite a bit of work to get it to free float in the hunter stock.

I do got some targets to share, I'm in the woods working right now but I'll post them this evening. It's shooting great, I got sub Moa with only about 20 rounds down the barrel.
 
I shot 20 rounds of factory ammo to get the scope zeroed and then shot these charges to get a feel for it and look for pressure signs. This was with accurate 2460 powder and 178 bthp. That powder is a little fast for the 178, I plan on trying varget and 4064. I couldn't get any Chronograph data because the 1.2" barrel diameter is too big for my magnetto sporter chrony, I've since picked up a different chrony just looking for time to get back out there. They are all 5 shot groups, the last two pics are of the same group just measured with out the flier. I was shooting a 2.5 pound trigger 20" AR and then went to this rifle which has a 8 oz. trigger, I wasn't ready when I squeezed. Lol I have no doubts this barrel is going to shoot.

Yes, still with 2460 powder. I've been playing around with seating depth this was seated .005" deeper than before. I'm at about 100 rounds thru it so I'll start to get a little more serious with load development. I called that flier on the first target. I'm beginning to wonder if the 8 ounce trigger might be too light, I always pull the first shot. Lol All 5 shot groups. It shoots pretty good with that 2460 so I just stuck with it instead of wasting my varget and 4064 until I get 150 rounds or so thru it.
Im very happy with it, it's staying under a 1" with several charge weights. I figure if I get a good bullet and powder it'll really come to life. Im thinking I might try a 185 juggernaut.
