So I am almost done. All i need is some paint ideas, so what ever you guys have for inspiration let me hear it. Barrel work was done by John Pierce in Lansing Mi and he did a great job, and a huge shout out to Mark at Short Action Customs. Shipped him my bolt on Tuesday, had it back to me on Friday so I could have it for a shoot this past weekend, 3 days can't complain with that.

Still need to play with the hand loads, I went with some basic loads off 6mmbr.com with berger 140VLD and Sierra 142SMK. two groups after sight in and i yanked a shot on each, the riffle is definitely out shooting me!

If you ever need some Ammo I have some left over its all factory Hunting Shack 147 Grain I believe I bet I have 20 boxes or more left. $39 a box just email me at [email protected]

Awesome rifle I love 6.5x284 just sold mine for a 308 just because I love reloading the 308 and had so much stuff for it.
