I couldn't ask for better. I'm so happy with mine.

The black bear saw 3 matches so far this year. It’s been doing great! I shit the bed at the Vortex Rampage though. It’s so weird having a nice full custom rifle, it was as if I lost my fundamentals and was doing things like slapping the trigger, not loading the bipod. I couldn’t hit big easy...

How's everyone doing? Any cool Black Bear stuff happening?

First range outing was yesterday and I am impressed. The pic attached shows rounds 3 - 20 out of the rifle. Top left group is the first 3 after adjusting the scope to be on paper. Keep in mind, the top groups had a freshly cleaned bore before starting. Also, was dealing with a 10mph headwind...

Thank you! As it sits in the picture, it balances about 1" in front of the recoil lug. It feels really good. I think that will work favorably for stabilizing while shooting off barricades while also not being uncomfortable while shooting off hand.

It's done. It's finally done. 2 years in the making. Manners PRS2 Elite Black & Blue Bartlein 26" Marksman Contour 6.5x47 Hawkins bottom metal Lil bastard gen 2 brake Huber trigger Razor gen 2 scope Vortex precision rings Harris bipod Can't wait to get to the range!

For you guys with Manners stocks, what barrel lengths and contours are you using and how is the balance? I would like to avoid an overly nose heavy gun but don't want to compromise rigidity with a lighter contour to do so. I was thinking a heavy Palma around 26" for myself. 6.5mm for...

Hi Robert, thanks for checking in, I am poor and have not been able to get the action yet. I love looking at the stock though. Keeps me motivated to get the build done. I will be sure to post pictures and range info as soon as I can. Hopefully around May I can have a ready to shoot rifle.

I think that will be my best option. I like that.

Just an update on the pillars situation. Got a hold of Manners and they are crediting me the cost of the pillars and labor. (I get free pillars!!) They said that on this action it will need done by me or a smith to determine the proper height of the pillars with the bottom metal and action to...

My PRS 2 came in today! All inletted by Manners. Don't have a black bear to test fit yet but at least I have something pretty to look at until then. One thing did come up. And full disclosure I have not contacted Manners yet as I literally just got this. But it appears the pillars were not...

In other news, my manners prs2 is supposedly shipping in "the middle of May" so I should hopefully have it by July!

Hi guys. Just rekindling the thread. How's everyone's Black Bears doing? Saving is hard. I'm hoping to have a complete rifle by the 2020 Border Wars season.

I'm in the same boat. I'm thinking of going the Norma Dasher brass route. Is there a reason you would need to trim the factory Dasher brass? If you get your barrel chambered for the Norma Dasher brass then you won't have to do anything.

Let me know how it runs the dasher! I'm thinking i want to do one of the 6br variants for mine.

I think this is a permanent price change so maybe not fitting on this thread but Huber Triggers are down to $295 for the steel body "Exponent" trigger (down from $395 a few months ago).

I just emailed Manners to see if they could switch my inlet over for one of these.

Awesome I'm happy for you. This will be my first custom action. Just saving my pennies and seeing what's out there. I'm pretty sold on this one.
