[QUOTE="XLR Industries, post: 2623429, member: 123236"] Momma burned 13 points for Elk this year so we had to get her set up with a new hunting rifle. The keys here were a rifle that fit her, compact, and was more shootable than her 300 win mag. We ended up going with an 18 inch 6.5 PRC in an Element 4.0 MG. I had a 26 inch medium palma barrel laying around so we threw that on there. I was a little concerned with the weight of the barrel but I figured we could always throw a deep spiral flute on it and make it look good! The LOP was another attention to detail that I wanted to watch! How it sits fit her well but my backup plan was to put a TR-2 on the chassis to get the LOP down to the desired length. Overall she is super happy and shooting the rifle very well. Before someone says anything I had the scope laying around and figured we would put it to use before season! Final Specs Weight 12lbs 3 oz (with everything in the picture) Blueprinted Remington 700 Bartlein Medium Palma 18" 1:7.5 APA Gen 2 Little Bastard Timney Elite Hunter Trigger XLR 4.0 MG- Carbon 12.5 inch buttstock, Carbon Grip, Folder Vortex Gen 2 Razor 4.5-27 TBAC Bipod Hornady Match 147 ELDM 2805 FPS [/QUOTE]
