    Bartlein Carbon Wrapped Barrels

    Thats been my experience as well, just keeps getting better. Will be doing another build with a #4 contour CF shortly, just waiting on my trigger to arrive then off it goes to the smith(y)

    Bolt Action Custom Work

    +1 Karl is great - especially anything to do with fluting anything. Nice guy to deal with - don't email him though he's not great at email just call him he usually will answer.

    Proof Elevation

    I've always had great luck with Bartlein barrels so when they came out with the new CF wrapped barrels figured I would try one. The timing was just right also, I was just in the process of collecting the parts when they announced them, and ended up finding just the right barrel in stock so that...

    Proof Elevation

    I've had a chance to shoot one - only at the range and only once but it was a nice rifle. The one I shot was a 6.5 CM and it shot really well with the factory ammo I was using - this was a friends who is happy with it having used it now for about a year. I had asked them if they would be...

    Which action for LW Hunting Build?

    Thank you - it turned out better than I had hoped. Now to see if it has good Mojo, I leave for a deer hunt in a couple days:)

    Which action for LW Hunting Build?

    If you decide to go with a stainless action the Rebel could work if you order it with the right set-up.

    Which action for LW Hunting Build?

    Define lightweight? I just built what to me is a lightweight rifle that came in under 6lbs for the rifle only. I used a Defiance Rebel action and a Bart CF barrel. If you order it right the Rebel is only a few ozs more than the Anti or AntiX.

    Nosler m48 mountain carbon or Proof elevation light weight hunter?

    Shaen @ Shaen Rifles did all the work on mine and IMHO it turned out fantistic. Heck if a nice guy to work with.

    Nosler m48 mountain carbon or Proof elevation light weight hunter?

    Yes, it has been glass bedded even though I think Proof says you don't need to with the v-block in the stock. My smith though in the end it would be better and I agree based on how everything came together and they way it shoots. I'll be doing the same on the next one:)

    Nosler m48 mountain carbon or Proof elevation light weight hunter?

    I've had a chance to handle both rifles, and if it where me I'd take the Proof. I really like the overall feel of the Nosler but don't much care for their action. IMHO the Proof with the Bighorn Origin is a nicer action. Also, depending on your likes, the Proof stock is a really nice stock for...

    Why shouldn't I build a 7-08?

    +1, Been shooting mostly 7MM-08's for about the last 15 years in all my hunting rigs. I've had 6-7 built over that time and am currently waiting on a new Defiance action for another one. Great caliber for hunting.

    If you were to buy a carbon fiber deer rifle...

    That's what I'm doing. I like the Proof rifles but they are spendy. So figured I could build one just the way I want for less. Ended up buying one of their carbon stocks and a new CF Bartlein barrel, still waiting on my Defiance action and off to the smith it goes. I will say, the stock...

    Lightweight Hunting Build

    Seriously?? You are comparing a Leupold to a S&B PM II 10x42?? I also own both and I would strongly disagree on the brightness and clarity of the two being equal or the Leupold superior. The S&B by the way will actual hold zero and track - if that matters to you in the least.

    Lightweight Hunting Build

    I'm sort of going that route on a current build, just waiting on the action from Defiance Machine. I'll be building a light-weight 7MM-08 with one of the new Bartlein carbon wrapped barrels in #4 contour. Action will be a Rebel with their sheep cut port, ultra-deep flutes on the bolt, decided...
