Ronin Posted March 28, 2020 Report Share Posted March 28, 2020 6.5 x 47 Lapua build for a very good returning customer whishing to replace their tired Rem 700 with something a little more special - the rem went on to be a XXedmore but thats another story. Spec is as follows: Used Borden Alpine repeater action (.473" bolt face) one of the earlier Alpines with a slightly reduced ejection port making it a very strong action. Barrel is a GB Cut - 8 twist profile Med Palma and finished at 24" with M18x1mm thread Atlas Works bottom metal Trigger - Jackson / CG unit - simply superb Stock I think is a Mcmillan A3/5 - it was provided by the customer, which purchased it as new from someone who had "bedded it" and made frankly a complete arxe of it. The barrelled action has been coated in Matt Black Ceracoat by Liquid Steel Design Barrelled action and bottom metal pillar bedded using Devcon Action topped off with Farrell 20 MOA rail Trigger release at second stage is 1lb and perfect Some images of the build and finished product I anticipate accuracy to be "adequate" (which one hopes will be single hole) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
