I just want to share with you my new Gap rifle built by Francis "The Animal". The gun is a hammer and it shoot better than I am.

GAP 6.5 Creedmoor
Templar VII action (Defiance Deviant)
26" Bartlien barrel M24 contour
Badger brake
Timney trigger
AX chassis
Laure OBR mount
USO Tpal



 
Lawdy. That is one fine rifle. I hope you have the opportunity to really stretch the Creedmoor's legs and post the results. That GAP turns out so many nice one off rifles is a testament to George's management skills.
 
Nice rifle. Will serve you well! Looks like everyone and their brother is moving to the 6.5CM. ;)
Did you happen to weigh your barreled action? I'm just interested in how it compares to mine - I've got the same setup but sub a Rem action in for your Templar.
 
No, I did not part it yet to know but it is about 17.5lbs empty for the rifle on my bathroom scale.

Great rifle and caliber. Congrats on your new GAP. Great feeling when they arrive.
 
I'm having a GAP rifle being built on an AX chassis right now. Seeing yours makes me anxious to get mine! Great looking/shooting rifle. Congrats.
 
That is one Very nice rifle. exactly how I would have it built except in 260rem. One of these days. :)

Very wicked!! Those AX stocks must be pretty heavy, my 6 Creed with a T4 Manners and HV 28" Bart weighs in at 15.6lbs empty. Lets see what she does at 300 and beyond if you could. What bullet?
 
17.5lbs empty and I use 140 amax and 142 SMK both gave awesome result
