This is one of the rifle I build. I finished it about 4 months ago but jsut got around today to taking some pictures.

Winchester 70 SA (PF). I removed the spacer out of the mag box and trimmed the bolt stop back to allow me to have plenty of room to seat the 140Amaxs where I wanted them. Action was completly blueprinted.

Shilen SM #17 cut to 26.5"

McMillan A3 with adj. LOP and a Karsten cheekpiece. Has the Rail in the forearm. Pillared and bedded.

Wyatt's 1pc bottom metal.

Jewel trigger set at 1.5lbs

TPS base and XTR rings holding the 6-20x50 MK4 Ill. TMR rec.

I've shot it 23 times so far. Seems to shoot mid .3's.

Painted myself so please don't hate on the paint job..

Re: My 260 build...

I have to say I like the paint as well. Came out great for doing it yourself. Great to hear it shoots well. Slick looking rifle.

How far does it hold it accuracy? I'm looking at a doing a tikka in 260 or one of the 6.5 chamberings next year.
