Just seen this on L.R.H. forum nice job
This build was inspired by a buddy of mine's build on another forum. Since I have shrugged off pretty much everything but the mighty Savage, this one is built on a Savage action. McRee Precision folding chassis. Ops Inc 3rd model 30 cal. suppressor. 10 twist Shilen 16" 308 barrel. Flip-up back up iron sights the rear sight is stored in the stock pack and once the scope is removed it can be installed on the pic rail. HDMR with G2 reticle. Without further ado.....Here she is:
The rifle weighs 14 lbs sans scope. 17lbs with scope. Below are some pics with the rear sight attached and no scope.
Zeroed the scope today. Upper right shot was the first shot after boresighting. Subsequent shots were a mix of some 208 A-Max loads I had left over from another gun and some Southwest 155 Scenar loads. There was a .1 mil adjustment in there somewhere after I got in the red also. But if I had to guess there are probably 12-15 shots in that group. Seems to shoot pretty good. Scenars were 1.7 mils to 425 and 208's were 2.5.

VJJ has 'the Bieber'...you now have 'the Selena Gomez'.
Nice job!!
Is it a pistol or a rifle? 26" OAL as shown.
Nice! The bar on ur Stihl saw is longer than the gun in the last pic haha
Very cool.
I get my first can this spring and will e doing something very similar.
Nice build,I am not familar with the scope,who made it by chance?
Willing to give back for what the sport has done for me!
Bushnell HDMR.
Nice, I saw the weight listed with and without the scope, Any idea how much she weighs with and without the suppressor?
Just curious because suppressors aren't legal for hunting in my state as of now and I'm guessing that it is a significant portion of your weight. I have done a project of similar stature except using factory parts and I really like the compact folding chassis.
Thanks
A good wife and a steady job has ruined many a great hunter.
According to Ops Inc's website, the 3rd Model 30 caliber suppressor weighs 31 ounces.
Last little bit of bling added beore it goes to paint.
