My Newest Addition

[B3dlam]

Well my barreled action finally got here from Moon at Crescent Customs and it was well worth it I have it in an AI 2.0 Chassis with atlas bipod and spigot adapter. I am waiting on a huber concepts trigger which has been ordered just hasn't arrived yet. I may end up breaking down and picking up an Xmark trigger to fill in until the huber gets here. Scope wise I have decided yet but I have been considering both a Vortex Razor 5-20 and a Leuopold Mark 8.

Specs:
Bartlein 5R barrel chambered in 6.5 creedmoor and cut to 26" and threaded 5/8x24 for my Thunderbeast 30P-1
Badger M2008 action
All Finished Burnt Bronze
AICS 2.0 Chassis
Atlas ver 8.1 bipod with spigot mount

That's a sweet looking rig. Scope will be perfect icing on he cake.

Re: My Newest Addition

A friend had a spare tuned remington trigger so I have it up and ready to fire it will be borrowing a Leupold Mark AR 4-12 so I can at least she how she shoots until I get the money saved up for a solid scope.

I love that bronze on black man. Very nice stick, print some groups and show us how she does.

Re: My Newest Addition

I don't know what it is about about bronze but it looks awesome. That is an awesome looking barreled action. No matter what stock you put it in it'd look ready to kick some ass. Is it cera-kote'd?

Yes that's Cerakote.

Re: My Newest Addition

Hope this doesn't come across as sounding silly, but is the Badger M2008 action comparable to the AICS action, except with a 2 vice 3 position safety? If you don't mind, about how much less (ballpark) does it cost going the route you went instead of buying an AICS from Eurooptic or Milehigh? I like the look of what you have much more.

I don't have any experience with an true accuracy international. Including the magazines and bipod I have around 3500 into this. Its a great action silky smooth I find myself just playing with it in the house.

Re: My Newest Addition

That's about $800 less than an AI AE MkIII. Does the $3500 include your Huber trigger?

 

[B3dlam]

Re: My Newest Addition

Yes that is including the huber trigger, the gunsmithing, and the cerakote.

Re: My Newest Addition

Sick! Love the burnt bronze - what a beauty. If she was mine I'd name her the bronze goddess.

Re: My Newest Addition

I will have to come up with a name for her to go along with Emma my ar-10 in 6.5 creedmoor.
