The “I’m not broke but I’m too broke for custom shit” precision rifle.

Tikka T3X CTR in 6.5 Creedmoor
Vortex Viper HD 5-25x50 VMR4
Vortex Pro Series scope rings
Harris S-LM bipod

Only things I plan on changing in the near future is the vertical Tikka grip, bottom metal to take AICS mags, and a Pod-Loc for the Harris.

Now to order some ammo and find time to go shoot it. Don’t ask me why I’m already looking at getting into reloading for this.

Got done shooting a NRL match today and I broke out the new toy.

Mile High Shooting rethreaded and mounted up the muzzle brake attachment for my Thunderbeast 50 BMG suppressor.

Between a 30 inch barrel and a long suppressor, the rifle is taller than I am.

The noise (or lack of) coming out of this thing is unbelievable, even with burning over 225 gns of 20N29 powder. It sounds like a suppressed 308.  The recoil is about 1,000 times more mellow than it was with my AAC Cyclops.  It feels like I am shooting a shotgun with 1 1/4 oz hunting ammo.  Not bad at all.  Ray, Zak and Shane really outdid themselves this time.

When shooting prone zero dust was kicked up and no muzzle flash was evident, even with a slow-mo video shot fwd of the muzzle.

Nothing wrong with Arken optics. I have 2. One on my bolt action 308 and one on my Ruger SFAR 308. Arken are not cheap ass scopes. The money you saved can be put toward more ammo. Enjoy your Arken scope. Am enjoying mine.

Late 80s model Remington 700 that I had re-barreled in 300 PRC.  Put it in an AI AX chassis, Surefire 300SPS suppressor, NF ATACR 7-35x56 in a SPUHR mount. Trigger is a Timney 510v2 Elite, had the action blueprinted and the lug replaced, new bolt knob.  RRS rail and RRS conversion on a Harris bipod.

Finally got this put together last night. First non-AR that I pieced together and built how I wanted.

Zermatt Origin lefty short action
Osprey Barrel, 6.5 Creedmoor, 7.5 twist, M24 contour from PVA
McMillan A4
Hawkins M5 DBM
Harris S-BRM 9”-13”
Vortex Viper HD 5-25 sitting in Vortex rings

Loaded up the 3 AICS mags I have on hand last night and made sure the rifle would cycle with no issues. Just need to check headspace after the gauges assuming they show up today or tomorrow. Assuming headspace checks out, I’ve got like 8 different boxes of various match loadings to do break in and accuracy tests with.

Only thing left to figure out is a muzzle device while I save up for a suppressor for it.

Gave my old .308 build a facelift.

Initial build was an H-S Precision stock, SFP scope with a weird mil-dotbar reticle and rings that were too low, and a fixed bipod.


Pulled the barreled action and dropped it into an MDT Oryx chassis with an MDT GRND bipod, Arken FFP scope and rings.  So much more adjustability!

details on this rifle, please?

My most precision gun is a plain old Bergara Wilderness Ridge in 6.5.  I don't currently shoot long range, scope is a 4-16.  

Rifle shoots sub MOA, love the stock fit and finish but I've decide I don't like the blind mag, maybe b/c it's short action?  It's a pain in the ass to load, particularly the 2nd round.  Fine for hunting but sort of annoying at the range shooting more rounds.

It's my first short action blind mag gun so it's either that, my choice of ammo, or my hamburger helper hands.
