Beautiful rifle.....what is the intended use?

+1 for Branden's work......he just did one on my AR's in multi-cam......amazing work.
 
Good Looking rifle.
6.5 SAUM sounds interesting.
Found some 300 saum brass on GB but it's pricy.
Waiting to hear how your load work up goes. My 7 saum likes H1000
Good Luck.

I needed a light weight, do-it-all hunting rifle. This fit the bill for hunting here in Missouri and back in Colorado when I get out there.
