This was originally a 243win. The original barrel was junk. So I rebarreled it to 6BRA. Had the bolt handle threaded for a OS knob. The recoil lug was double pinned to the receiver. We pinned it at the 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock position along with the receiver face being trued and the bolt lugs where lapped and I trued/recut the bolt face.
The contour of the barrel duplicates the original Savage Varmint. The rifling is 5R and 1-7 twist.
The original stock was bedded but poorly done and done with no pillars. So I carefully ground out all of the bedding and we pillar bedded the stock.
The rifle has the original trigger that I just retuned.
Scope base is a EGW 20moa and the scope is a older Weaver T20x.
