Re: new build

I know that cooper offers one, however they are probably more of custom shop than a manufacturer.

Other than that I don't know that anyone else offers one.

This is a remington 700p that I had rechambered to 6.5x47.

Great picture and I really like the color scheme on your gun. I have Remington 5r that I have wanted to cerakote the barrel and action od green like yours, after seeing this one I think I will.

Re: new build

It is fairly new however it's just not a know caliber to the public. Most people have never heard of it before. Even the gun shop I had my last build delivered to had never heard of the round.

The big manufacturers aren't going to make a gun in this caliber because it won't sell because people haven't heard of it and there isn't alot of factory ammo out there.

Thanks man, the guys at accurate ordanance did a great job. I can't wait to get my hands on it.

They trued the action, Broughton barrel, badger oversized lug, badger bolt handle, bedded the stock and of course the coating.

Re: new build

There are a bunch of guys in the states that use it in all types of competitions.

There are a bunch of company's that make dies for them.

I use the redding match FL and NK dies, with the redding comp seater, lapua brass, cci 450 primers, sierra, berger, and lapua bullets. Oh yea and a healthy amount of H4350
