My new 6.5

[Gary223]

Picked this up from Chris at UK Gunworks last night very happy with how its turned out.
Will be out stalking with it tommorow to christen it.

About the rifle;
Caliber is 6.5 Nemesis which is chris at uk gunworks own design,
It is similar to the 6.5 creedmore and was relesed about the same time but on a much smaller scale.
Its is a 22-250ai expanded and necked up to 6.5 with and improved 40 degree sholder compared to the creedmores 30 degree sholder.
It launches 123gr bullets at just shy or 3000fps with 38gr of Vit N150.

Blueprinted remington 700 action
1:8 twist 22" heavy barrel cant remember make..
Third eye tactical evo chassis system
20 moa rail
Third eye tactical scope rings
Aimzonic compact sound moderator
Sightron 6-24x50 lrmd

Very nice looking! Come back with shooting report! Is the butt plate two way adjustable?

 

[Gary223]

Will do, and i belive its just got up and down ajustment no length of pull ajustment that i can see but its fairly short so very useable unless you have some extreemly long arms.

Nice looking rifle. Not sure if it would feasible for you, but I'd love to see how this compares to some other 6.5's. I'm sure some others might be curious, too.

 

[Gary223]

I know lads with pretty much all the 6.5mm cals so can get a direct comparison,
What kind of info are you after? Terminal ballistics on game or just a general balistics comparison between them?
Cheers for the comments.

How's the suppressor?? Looks interesting.

 

[Gary223]

I have one on my .223 and it is very good, low maintinace very lightweight and for its size it really reduces the noise well..

Heres a link to me shooting the .223 so you can hear it.

Nice stick! The paint looks more like a brushed bronze - maybe it's just how the light hits it in the photo. Regardless, I dig it.

 

[Gary223]

Cheers mate
Yea that is a bad photo for the colour, sun really managed to catch it..
Its fairly flat dark brown without the glare.

Have you anything else to compare it to? The lightweight/compact size make it interesting.

Seeing all these new 6.5's is making my wait even more unbearable, nice rig.

Compared to the ase utras and a-tec mods this is the quietest i have heard,
Bar the maxim which is a tiny bit quieter but weighs a fair bit more than the aimzonic.

Interesting round. Any ballistics with the 140-142grs?

 

[Gary223]

It shoots the 140gr amax well but not sure of speeds yet once i have it all setup i will do some load dev with the 140s and see how they compare to the 123gr amax..

That's very interesting. I might try to get one.

 

[BullzeyeNJ]

Love the color and the build. Best of luck with the new gear.

 

[Skullcreek]

That's badass!

Well living in a condo in Boston, I don't really have the space to reload so I'm at the mercy of what is commercially available -- which face it, these days is next to nothing. But even in less crazy times, I'm not in a position to do a more esoteric caliber so my build-in-process is a 6.5mm creedmoor. But I am curious how your 6.5mm Nemesis compares to the creedmoor (or 6.5x47 or even 6.5x284) from a ballistics point of view. Maybe one day when I have more room...
