It's going to be a .260 Rem, built off a stiller action, MDT Tac21 chassis, and likely a Broughton or Krieger barrel. Any suggestions on what else to add to it?

Muzzle Device? Trigger? Personally I just installed a Huber Concepts in my new 6.5 creedmoor bolt gun and love it but I like the 2 stage feel.
 
Re: new build for me this year...

don't have a trigger picked out, there will be no muzzle device as I hate brakes and can't own a suppressor here in canuckistan...
 
Re: new build for me this year...

I really like the Huber concepts but they are pricey I am sure some other people have triggers they like as well and will pipe up. I am not a fan of breaks either mine are threaded for my can although I am still waiting on the NFA branch to clear it for me.

What scope?
 
Re: new build for me this year...

I'll probably order a US Optics for my Remmy .308 and move the nightforce to this one... or maybe I'll just put a US optics on this one instead... I'll cross that bridge when I come to it

Yeah with 260 you really don't need a brake. But then again, even though you can't shoot with cans, doesn't mean a brake isn't effective if you're doing string shots, even on a 260 which has pretty light recoil.

What kind of trigger are you looking at. That's one of the first things i'd upgrade on any quality bolt gun. I'm a big fan of the Xtreme shooting products. you can't go wrong with a Jewell or Huber either.
