[QUOTE="Joel Russo, post: 1385408, member: 6152"] [ATTACH=full]87789[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]87791[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]87792[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]87793[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]87794[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]87795[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]87796[/ATTACH] In the past year, I’ve had a few customers come to me for midrange muzzleloaders and shotguns to use for deer in the Midwest. I put one customer in a slug gun, and I’m working on a muzzleloader for another presently. Not happy with either choice, I started to look into the options for the straight walled cases as they are now legal in most Midwest states. I realized that the .450 Marlin was the ticket as Hornady offers a 325 grain flex tip at a reasonable cost. Problem was that I couldn’t find a bolt action repeater. That was my motivation to build one. I pulled one of our short action magnum Axiom actions and went to work. Chambered a Sendero contour, 24” Hart barrel, fluted it, made a custom shortie three row brake, CeraKoted in Graphite Black and bedded it into a McMillan hunter stock. This rifle has a hinged floor plate for bottom metal, and is capable of two rounds in the mag box. It will also feed flawlessly with our bottom metal and flush mount detachable billet mag which is an option. A trip to the range today shows promise.. after I get back from the NALRSA finals and SHOT show, I’ll shoot it at 200, 250, and 300 yards. This rifle is pleasant to shoot with minimal recoil. Weight without optics is 8 lbs. I will be offering these for sale. They are not cheap as I’m using top shelf components.
