@BarrelBurner, Nice rifles! I almost went with a .300WM over the 30-06 on my rifle. How's the recoil? I'd assume it would be simular to a standard weight 30-06 with that heavy barrel.

[BarrelBurner]

Thank you, i am really enjoying them both. Felt Recoil is actually less on the 300 wm than my 06 with sporter barrel and tupperware stock.

[scnewt]

Nice! I know my heavy 30-06 feels like a 243. Makes me wonder why some bother with a muzzle brake on a 308 :rolleyes:.

Ok gents,
Building my first rifle ever, scary huh? I currently have a savage 110 chambered in .300 Win Mag. Just bought a Choate Tactical stock (I'm a fan of the synthetic stocks) but it's a center feed stock as Choate does not make a stock for the savage long action with a drop mag. I need to dremel or drill out the bottom so the mag box fits properly. Also, the timney 2lb trigger just came in so that is going on along with a 4x12x50 Leupold scope with Warn rings. I am also waiting on an order I made a month ago from Northland to have a custom Criterion 26" bull barrel turned and made by Jim. Finally I will have it all shipped to SSShooter to have the barrel lug and action tried and trued and glass bedded. I also have a Harris bipod I'm attaching. Any thoughts?

[scnewt]

Sounds good but I'm really not sure how beneficial it was for me to glass bed my Choate stock. The bedding block does fine by itself if you want to save some money.

[Rotorhead19]

Did you shoot with the stock before and after the bedding? if so was their any difference? I will be shooting at 800-1800 meters in distance so, every little detail will count

[scnewt]

Yea I did a before and after and there wasn't any measurable difference.

My first varmint rifle, definitely not my last!

Model 12FV in .223 1:9 Twist
Stock is Boyds Forest Camo
Old school Acra Glass bedding dyed green and brown to match the stock.
Rifle shoots great! Not a huge fan of the accutrigger but everything else is right on!

Started life as a 111 in 30/06. Nice crisp 3 screw trigger polished and adjusted to 2.5 lbs with no creep, no over travel. Apache Gun Works 22" varmint weight barrel chambered in 6x55 improved 30°, 1 in 8" twist. Boyd's Prairie Hunter stock in Cinnamon, Savage large bolt handle, Leupold rings and bases, Leupold 4-12 VX1. A 6.5x20 Zeiss Conquest is on it's way for this rifle as well as an EGW 20moa base and Burris XTR low rings.

[BarrelBurner]

Very nice sir. Looks like the Prairie Hunter handled the barrel diameter well?
