Precision Rifles.....show em!!

Great stuff but I feel for you. I recently had a similar experience

I was on a streak with all these barn find old new stock rifles and than it happened…….. poorly listed item with only one pic but after a long phone conversation I was assured by one of the dealer personal that the gun was lightly used and well maintained …… ya figure how bad could a 308 be

The whole deal started bad …. The rifle got lost for 10 days. USPS is very bad these days

They first told me it was shipped …. Than I was told it was at my FFL ….. than I was told fed ex accidentally picked it up with a USPS label and they were holding it. Miraculously it arrived on day 11 and was packaged poorly and the box was beat up

Upon inspection the gun was beat to shit. Damaged crown …. Chamber looked like it was worked on with a power drill and a wire brush. The barrel was badly pitted . I dont think they ever cleaned the barrel …. The copper ran out of it and exposed a shot rifle

The bore scope made me sick. I immediately had my ffl overnight it back UPS the way a gun should be shipped called them in the am and said the gun would be back to them by 10 am and i expected a refund bt 12

Even though they said all sales were final and no refunds Amex confirmed a refund shortly after noon

If the guy didn’t represent the rifle completely opposite of what it was i would not have been so pissed

Amazes me of how people treat a good gun

I was glad I did a few days later I found a 26 inch barrel the first was 20 digi cam rifle that was never shot and i am impressed it wants to shoot
I commend you on the project



I'm equally impressed with that combination metal spork/can opener ration tool, sir! Very nice.

Love the setup! Where did you find the file for the 3D printed dope card holder?
 
Picked up a rifle built by Gary at Paramount Tactical Solutions. They just started building custom guns. I went in with my wife to grab some shooting and introduce the new puppies and saw this on the wall.. It really stood out to me and my wife looked at me and said I should get it... (wife of the year award finalist for sure).

Specs:
Defiance Ruckus SA SS action (90*)
6.5 Creed Bartlien barrel
MPA DN5 Break
Trigger Tech Diamond
Woox Furiosa Ultra Chassis (REALLY LOVE THIS)

I immediately threw my 840 ZCO with the MCT-3 reticle on there... with a spare Accutec Bipod I had laying around.

This is one of the nicest rifles I have shot and my new favorite. I don't own a 90* throw outside my Berghara hunter. This was the smoothest action I have ever used and it was getting smoother throughout the day. I didn't notice real difference in the bolt throw form my ARC and Faxon builds. I might be addicted to shooting this rifle...

Great groups with Hornady 147 ELDM factory, and my first load I tried w/42.8 grains of Staball and Berger 140s (def pulled the last shot). Going to explore that one with some seating depth changes (was loaded to 4 thousandths off lands and probably going to bring it to 2 thousands and try it out). Im thinking 1/4 inch MOA is def in the cards with this build.

Not sure if I've posted this one here or not.

Rem XR-100 in 308. Rather uncommon I guess, as it was a Gander Mountain exclusive. I got it there on clearance for $600. Aside from having a butt pad installed for more LOP, it's bone stock. Shoots lights out. A buddy, who's a decent shooter btw, said that 2 of his best 3 groups ever were shot with this rifle.

I've thought about having it threaded, but really don't want to take a chance on messing it up. The only other thing is I prefer 2-stage triggers, but this is pretty nice for a single stage.

Not cherry picked, just and average group I shot.
