Gunsmithing Look what RWSGunsmithing made for me

[pwizl]

It's a barreled action in .338 Norma Mag made by RW Snyder Gunsmithing. The action was made to Roberts specs by Defiance Machine, with a fluted bolt, pinned lug and 30 moa base. Barrel is a Rock Creek, 28" finish length with a 1-8 twist, #17 heavy varmint contour and a removable RWS brake. Robert, correct me if any of that is wrong. All finished in Tungsten Cerakote. I haven't actually received the action yet, Robert is waiting on my final payment, but I needed to show it off. Robert, from RW Snyder Gunsmithing, was great to deal with and was very knowledgable and patient with helping me get everything right. Thanks again Robert

Looks epic! What do you plan on putting it in? Chassis?

Re: Look what RWSGunsmithing made for me

I'm leaning towards a chassis but I don't have any experience with them and have never gotten behind any of them to see how they feel. Any suggestions? My other gun is a .260 with a Manners T2 and I really like the stock so I may go with a T2-A or 4-A. Still not sure

Single shot or repeater?

Looks great. I have a manners t4a now, and have a t2a on order for a new build, and I decided on going with the t2 this time because it does not have the butt hook which after shooting some I think that I will like the sloped butt on the t2 better. But you can't go wrong with a manners either way.

Im thinking about doing the same caliber in a repeater
Do you use the cip length mag?

This is what RWS said in the post he made about the actions.

"They will have to be fed from a detachable mag of some kind though and it can be cip length."

Yes my 338 actions can handle the cip and seekins length mags.

Robert is Good to Go. Anything he says or does is top notch. He has been very helpful to me too. That's a great looking set up. I'm sure it will shoot lights out too.
