This build was done on a Shilen DGR long action with a savage threaded PAC-Nor barrel I bought off a member of the site. Decided to try a custom action after looking at how much I have in my 243 action after time and true, changing bolt handles and fluting bolts and all that fun stuff. So far it seems to be a kind of best of both worlds savage barrel nut and Remington triggers and stock. Now if the bolt heads were just easy to get to change I would say its dang near a perfect set up.


I got my rifle put together now time to start playing with loads. I picked up a Box of 200g Nosler e-tip and a bottle of IMR-4320 to start with. Plan to try some accubonds and partitions when I find some available to order up. Rifle came out like i wanted 8lbs with scope. Should make it nice for carrying around.

Shilen DGR action
Shilen hinged floor plate
Jewell trigger
B@C Alaskan II stock in red/black
Fluted PAC-Nor 22" barrel.

Scope on it now is just a Nikon omega i had sitting around. Leaning towards a Leupold CDS but haven't made a final decision.
