6.5x47 lapua build

Re: 6.5x47 lapua build

stocks all painted up i dura coated it last week , as far as the receiver i went with a stiller tac 30 and a schneider barrel, just waiting for the tac 30 to come in . now just wondering if i should match up the camo with the stock to every thing else or just leave it.

I used fish net stockings . I put a light base coat let it dry then put the net on and started paiting layers of dark earth green and black and then a dusting of cycote tan

Very nice!! I'm saving money up to get a 6.5x47 built. Can't wait!
I'm going with the aics stock. Hart 26", and not sure about my action
Yet. I do know it's going to be custom.

Thanks, it's a Manners T4A . I had an AI stock and didn't like it the comb height , it seamed to high for low rings but this ones lower so it fits better plus it comes with a badger bottom

Nice, I've been using varget at 36grn not sure if I Should push it any more with cci br4 primers I wanna try h4350 with cci 450 primers and with varget as well. I think the only think hold me back is the 1&9 twist barrel . I would like to switch to a 1&8 in a bartlien barrel any ideas ?
