Title: My New Baby Is All Done!
Post by: carpsniperg2 on April 17, 2011, 10:28:47 PM
 :IBCOOL: Just had to share :IBCOOL: I posted pic's of her a little bit ago "when she was bare". Just got everything all finished up. 340wby made by magnum research/sako action/muzzle break/ hs precision stock/ Tuned the trigger down to 2.5lbs/ Mk 4 steel rings/ Custom built Leupold 8.5-25x50 lrt vx3 with Leupold dot by my friends at Leupold! Then I have to thank Kain for the decals! He really helped me bring her to life! This in the first introduction of the Black Widow :IBCOOL: You will see her more then a few times on here in the future. :IBCOOL:

I could not wait until this scope came I put a different scope on it because I had to shoot it! Lol it came with a box of weatherby 250g spire points and it shot a 3/4" group with them at 100 and 1.75" at 200 with factory toads so its already shooting great and recoil is very mild for that big of cal. Got some 200g accubonds loaded that should really drive tacks when I find its sweet spot.

That is is awesome set up!

What kind of barrel do you have on there? at what length?
Title: Re: My New Baby Is All Done!
Post by: carpsniperg2 on April 19, 2011, 02:25:54 PM
Not sure on the brand of the barrel, it is custom built for these rifles for magnum research. Here is what the net says on it.

Match-grade, hand-lapped, cut-rifled barrel for optimum bullet stabilization.     
Custom-contoured and crowned to significantly reduce vibration and enhance accuracy.     
Manufactured to exacting "Bench Rest" quality tandards.
.004" head space tolerance.     

The barrel is 24" without the break a little over 26" with the break.

interesting.. maybe they make their own barrel?

Would be interesting to see what kind of barrel they buy if outsourced.. i.e. Hart, Douglas, Krieger..etc..
Title: Re: My New Baby Is All Done!
Post by: carpsniperg2 on April 19, 2011, 08:22:52 PM
Yeah it would be. They don't make them anymore they have switched from sako actions to remington :puke: lol just kidding 8)

The puke! :chuckle: I think I have 7 remingtons if I remember right. Getting hard to keep track 8) But I do like the sako actions way better.
Title: Re: My New Baby Is All Done!
Post by: addicted on April 22, 2011, 08:06:31 PM
I'm happy you got the sako action then.
I'm less interested now that they are changing to remington...
Title: Re: My New Baby Is All Done!
Post by: carpsniperg2 on April 22, 2011, 08:44:19 PM
Yep seems like a lot of the companies that are making "more custom guns" are using the remington action :puke:  :chuckle: Like christensen arms. I was going to buy one of there rifles but they want 700.00 more to upgrade to the sako action :bdid:
