Hi,

 

As Andy mentioned I have one in 6.5x47 Lapua mated to an ATACIS stock. With 39.5 gr of Reload Swiss RS60 and 123 gr Sierra Match Kings and the aid of a bench-rest and a back bag, oh and me doing things right, it will put five bullets through more or less the same hole at 100 yards. What more can one ask for? OK, maybe ten, twenty bullets through the same hole I guess?

 

Not tried any hunting bullets through it, but I'd image it would deliver similar accuracy.

 

One point of note is that it's a heavy beast, the stock alone weighs about 6 lbs, stick the action and barrel in, a big scope, silencer and bipod and you are talking a serious weight. If you are going to be using it for stalking, you may be better getting another lighter weight stock. The original manufacturer AS.H Büchsenmacher in Germany (link) where it is called the PSG Walküre AICS, also fits it with the PSE Composites E-Tac (link) stock which should be a lot lighter. It will probably fit in most Remington 700 short-action stocks, but don't quote me on it.

Hi thanks for the feedback I was thinking of buying the action and barrel and puting it in to a McMillan or manners stock. I'm hoping sporting services will supply either.

 

Thanks once again
