6mmBR Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 Here are some pictures of a 6BR BAT which Neil has just built for me. The specification is as follows BAT S multi flat action right bolt left port 30" Bartlein 4 groove .236 bore 1 in 8 twist barrel chambered in 6 BR .272" neck Joe West thumb up target stock, which was finished by Hydrographics The rifle is so beautifully built and is already showing huge promise. Thanks to Neil at McKillop rifles for building such a superb rifle and also to Joe West Stocks that thumb up stock is awesome and last but not least to Hydrographics for clear coating the stock.

6mmBR Posted December 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 Cheers guys. It's built for short range F class and practice. 4000 rnds of barrel life means I can play lots with it. Unlike my 7mms which your afraid of putting too many rounds through them. Vince I will have another go at bench rest but sadly it won't be this side of Xmas. The gun did fine yesterday in tricky conditions it held a good 1/3 MOA elevation at 600 yards. It's just the nut behind the butt which couldn't steer it near the middle! You forget how forgiving the 7mm's are on the wind, the challenge of the 6BR is great fun. Cheers Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6mmBR Posted December 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 and is already showing good promiss in the right hands... Yes and I wonder whose they may be?

Just plain lazy lol No Short Siberia seems to be permanently booked out by the police! So they have made a 100 yard range on Century The NRA have been using a JCB. To clean out the ditches and the range is covered in mud so the benches seemed the better option. Cheers Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see, that's one to put in the memory banks I think :-) Just remember what comes around goes around lol Joking aside you did shoot well with it, all we need now is to get you to do the same with your .308!

matchking Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 Hi Dave, Nice looking rig. Similar sort of rifle as my 6.5x47 Stolle Neil built me. He does know how to make a fine rifle. If he wasn't a tight scotsman he could put some pics of the rifles he builds on his web site . Look forward to seeing what it shoots like. Drop it in the shop when your passing, I'll show mine if you show me yours . ATB SEAN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brillo Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 That's the one. Nothing special on but it's a guest day so only £15 range fee. Limited to 100 and 200 yards though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Limited to 100 and 200 yards though.Thanks very much for the offer.Since it's short range I think I'll just pop up to the local club. I would be interested in any 500 or 600 yard shoots.
