Reply With QuoteIts nearly taken a year but have completed my build. The chassis and barreled action were cerakoted by DavTac, Shreveport La. Need to load up some rounds and go to the range.
I had searched for a considerable amount of time for a suitable stock or chassis for my 260 Rem build. The difficulty is/was that stocks/chassis are next to nil for intermediate actions with 4.522" center to center action bolt spacing.
I contacted Kyle with XLR and he was willing to cut a custom Evolution chassis. I received the chassis today in the raw as I will be Cerakoting the rifle.

260 Rem Caliber
Savage Model 110c J series Intermediate Action,4.522" Center to Center action bolts

Its nearly taken a year but have completed my build. The chassis and barreled action were cerakoted by DavTac, Shreveport La. Need to load up some rounds and go to the range.
Very nice...let us know how it shoots!
Very nice looks great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Rifle looks great! Maybe its just the picture but your brake looks upside down.
Good catch! You are correct, still need to time the brake.Originally Posted by LoganbillJ
Get that thing timed and take it to the range!
kyle is the man! xlr is an awesome company.
Nice rig! I want an Xlr as well, what colors of cerakote did you get? I really want the patriot brown
Looks freaking awesome. Not sure it matters, but typically, the wider scope ring is run up front and the thinner one in the rear, if I'm not mistaken.
It is indeed Patriot Brown and Coyote Tan.
Gosh I am not sure now. I believe I saw some photos with the 6 screw ring at the back. I will e-mail Badger Ordnance and see what they have to say.
Been doing some load development on the 260. Still have less than 300 rounds down range. Starting to zero-in on some decent bullet and powder combinations. The sierra 140GR MKs seem to be giving me the best results. Have some 139gr Lapua Scenars that I will be trying in the future.
great looking rig and some fine shooting. congrats on the nice build!

Holy Crap!!
Tack driver. Nice rifle and fine shooting!
Load development continues. So far it looks like 37.0gr VihtaVuori N550 with 139gr Lapua Scenars is a sweet spot at .005" off the lands. Also 42.0gr IMR4831 with 140gr Sierra MKs .010" off the lands.
