    Lupua 139 gr
    Lupua .260 brass
    cci 200 primer

    I got my Beanland build right before Christmas. Can't wait to shoot it. I pulled the stock and sent it off for a squirt of color. Good looking rifle you got there sir.

    I love that barrel!!

    Who did the work on that? </div></div>

    After talking a little more with the owner prior to me, he said you had it. Looks like us gun enthusiast are a tight knit group just trading toys (haha).

    I believe Marty at Twistedbarrel.com did the barrel fluting....

    Sigh....I sold it before I ever put the action in it.....I had a chance to grab a KMW sentinel.

    I should have kept the W3......that's a badass looking rifle.

    Looks good bud, can't wait to see it in person. What happened to the 5.5-22 scope you had on the OBR? Also whats mounted on the scope tube?
     
    Re: My Beanland 260 is set up!

    My glass has always been a 3.5-15 NF and it's a Accuracy First level on the tube...

    maybe someday I'll upgrade the glass to a S&B or the like but NF has treated me well.
