Biggerhammer, Nice looking rig.
I'd like to hear about the Throating, mag well costraints. Are you going to have to single feed it with the long bullets loaded out where they should be?

It's throated for the VLD,s, I built it on a Remington700 long action. So I have plenty of room for any bullet out there. As soon as PTG releases their long action detachable mag bottom metal mid this month through MidwayUSA. I will pull the BDL floor plate and install the PTG and run the AICS Lapua mags. I did have the smith open my feed rails so I can feed from the mag box right now. Feeds perfect :tup:, when I switch the bottom metal out, I may go to either a A3 or A5 stock. I may go with a AICS chassis, I haven't decided yet. Whatever I go with will be a vertical grip style stock.

What does it weigh without the scope? I think you might have missed seeing that in my post.

Very nice hammer, lots o sexy in that rig, but i have to ask, why the bfu bolt knob????

Makes for easier driving in the fast lane. :tup: It's also threaded, so I can change it out with any style I wish. I can run my smaller Kampfeld hunter knob if I like.

I just finished my jig to install the bfu knobs.

I just figured he would have offset all the black with a nice olive drab knob.....
Love that setup......
To hunt and butcher an animal is to recognize that meat is not some abstract form of protein that springs into existence tightly wrapped in cellophane and styrofoam.

The gun looks cool, but I know hardly anything when it comes to parts and all that. So my question is...Where the hell do you go to shoot at 1k yards?!
