SAC: Hardcore 22-250 Manners MCS-TF2, picture heavy.

[Mgordon]

Shooters,

Just showing some pictures of a .22-250 that we just finished up for a customer. We did not hold anything back on this rifle and it shoots as great as it looks with 80 Gr SMK's and 75 A-MAX's at 3100 fps.

We started by barreling up this rifle with our 22-250 reamer, cutting to length, crowning and threading 5/8 x 24 with custom thread protector. We then fitted the barreled action into the stock and cleaned up all the lines, filled everything in, then fit it back down. The bedding turned out great! We then fitted the EFR, broke the barrel in, and sent it off to get Melonited. A great thing about Melonite is the prevention of galling on the lugs and muzzle threads in addition to the extended barrel life. The customer plans on installing a TNVC WASP when they are available.

Just how well is it shooting? I think a small cartridge tactical rig would be great fun.

With that twist and the case capacity, I'd be tempted to try 90's.

Sweeeet rifle.
