Picked up my new custom built 280AI from Gunsmith Mitch Kendall, I can’t thank him enough for his attention to detail.

Using the Pure Precision SKLTN Action,
24 inch 1-9 twist cut rifled #2 contour fluted stainless Benchmark Barrel
Triggertech Special Trigger
Gunwerks ClymR Stock and bottom metal
Talley’s holding a Zeiss V4 4-16x44 scope

Scoped weight 7lbs 12oz

So far it’s a dream to shoot off the bench and freehand, tested out several factory Ammos first time at the range and didn’t disappoint, putting together some handloads for the next range trip.
