    Long Range Elk Hammer is Complete


    This is my home built 300 win mag savage I just finished up.
    Here are the specs:

    This rifle started as a 111 Trophy Hunter combo.
    Apache built 27" Xcaliber barrel
    Savage Magnum contour with an APA micro ******* brake
    NSS barrel nut and recoil lug
    SSS bolt handle
    Stockade Mule Deer stock (money saver) I finished and painted with alumahyde and krylon webbing
    Rifle Basix Sav 1 trigger
    Weaver 20 moa extended base
    Leupold PRW rings
    Vortex Viper HSLR scope

    Shoots great!
    208 Amax at 2950 FPS and 1/2 moa

    thread.

    Great work! That stock paint job looks excellent.

    Looks good! Stock turned out really good too. Sounds like a shooter too. How far are you gonna stretch it on targets?

    Thanks guys. I appreciate it.
    The paint is gray alumahyde with a light dusting of matte black to darken it and black Krylon webbing. Theirs some better close ups of the paint in the aftermarket stock forum.
    As far as distance, I've shot it out to 760 yds with the old stock that was on it. A 208 at 2950 is by far the most lost range capable long range combo I have (much more capable than my current shooting abilities), it should be super sonic to close to 2k yards and be a critter killer to 1K yards. Now I just need to start practicing ha ha
