Well, got the scope in today. Took the time and mounted it and did a little cleaning job on her before I pieced it all back together.

Still need to bed it.

Good looking gun......Very sharp!

Where did you get the rifle case? How long is your barrel?

Im looking for a barrel to fit my long barreled rifle. Looking for ideas......

NICE! Tell us more please. What kind of scope is that? Looks like a Pelican case AJ.

Congrats man.......im happy also, i just got my new rifle as well....

Pelican case is from LA Police gear, they were having some sales. Which reminds me. I have the one just shorter than this that will fit an M4 or a Ruger 10/22 that I have to get rid of (ordered the wrong one and the guy's at LA Police Gear have been real good to me, so I figure I'll let em keep my business and not return it).

The barrel is made my Lilja, it's a 27" 1 in 7 twist. It's finished at 29" with an Opsinc brake on it.

You should probably expect a long wait, not sure they might be caught up but I was told they're back ordered for a few months... everybody is... all these guy's are trying to get their long range rigs finished in the event it becomes illegal.

Also check out Mike Rock's barrels.
A guy I work with has one of Mike's on his .308 and swears by it.

Shilen also makes nice barrels, had some experience with those.

Nice looking rifle nice to see some custum rifles on here,is that a McMillan stock

7 twist? Holy crap! What bullet? I know a 9 twist will stabilize a 180 berger. That is a sweet rig. I am working on the same-kinda thing except an STW with a 30" 9 twist hart on a Borden action. Let us know how it shoots.

nice rig...whats the weight?

A Remington 700P action from a .300 WM that has been trued
A 7mm Rem Ultra barrel from Lilja
The twist is 1:7(Will take 200 - 210 custom made rounds with BC through the damn roof)
The Rifle has an OpsInc brake on it, barrel is finished at 29".
Stock is a B&C Medalist series
Badger rail with 8-40 screws.
Knob is a Badger knob.
Rings are Burris LOW XTR's
Scope for now is a Millet TRS-1 4-16x50
Recommended HIGHLY for the price, I picked it up used for 265. It was kinda dark last night but next to a Leupold it looked damn near on par. Has a solid click on the adjustment knobs. All around I like it right now, and can't go wrong for the money. If I'm not impressed it'll go on a 10/22 or something and I'll break down and buy a Nightforce.

Not certain on the weight yet, however it's pretty damn heavy. I'll let ya know later today if I can get it weighed tonight.

No, It looks and performs just as well for half the price

The only thing this doesn't have is the thumbwheel adjustment for the cheek piece. Yet B&C threw in a nice little slider rail up front and u can add like 20( lol ) sling swivels studs if you wanted by just sliding it in and tightening the tension screw. Rather nice.

And thank you for all the compliments guys. Was a rather cheap build considering the costs of a lot of rifles.

Quite the snipers setup. It's open season on tweakers!

Ghost1941 · « **Reply #13 on:** March 18, 2009, 04:55:15 PM »

Please tell me there's some kind of bird or something named a tweaker you might be considering obliterating with a 7mm?

Cause if it's what I think it is hehe, that's hilarious.

509er · « **Reply #14 on:** March 19, 2009, 05:19:52 AM »

Nice!

ELKBURGER · « **Reply #15 on:** March 19, 2009, 06:02:26 PM »

A tweaker is similar to the camp robber but a much larger target. It is very nocturnal do to its inability to sleep. It slithers around looking to steal anything of value. An ideal target for the long range shooter looking for a challenge.

Ghost1941 · « **Reply #16 on:** March 19, 2009, 07:04:55 PM »

Ok, back home a tweaker was a meth addict who made their *censored* out in the woods.

However, yours might be just as much fun to shoot.
