SSG 338 Lapua Ackley Improved

[Desert Fox]

This is Nate personal rifle that I now proudly own. The rifle is everything I expected it to be. Thanks Nate!

WOW. That about sums that up.

Very nice! What action is that beast built on? I'll be very interested in seeing how it shoots. I have a 338 lapua being built now and I debated on the AI but decided against in the end.

Lawton 7500 Single Shot

Sweet deal! I hear nothing but good things about Lawtons actions, What is your impression? I ask just cause my 338 LM is going to on a 8500 repeater action.

Lawton 7500?

Do the Lawton 7500s (1.45")come with his large or small tenon thread??? (1.062 or 1.187)
very nice looking rig, how long is the barrel?

1.062 According to Lawton Spec.

Your rifle looks great and obviously shoots as well.
Would you mind responding to some questions, as I am trying to decide on caliber and rifle....although I'm leaning towards a .338LAI:
Specs such as lenght of barrel (excl. lenght of brake), make and # barrel, twist, weight of gun (it looks like a MacMillan 5 stock).
Also, I am looking at either a USO scope or IOR. Your's looks like Valdada's IOR (3-18x50?)?
Any info would be helpful. I am trying also to decide what features I'd like on the gun. What bolt handle did you choose?

Very curious,
terjeness
