Couldn't be happier. Thank you very much to the team at GA Precision and 30calsniper for the paint!

Re: New GAP 7MM Rem Mag
Great looking rifle and 7 mags are my favorites. How well does that stock deal with recoil (which can be a bitch on lighter weight hunting stocks)?

Re: New GAP 7MM Rem Mag
With the GAP contour barrel, scope, and stock, the gun is stout. Plus the QD brake and suppressor take out all the recoil. Similar to shooting a 308.

NICE. Amazing setup to be able to get 7 mag performance with the recoil of a .308.

It's the base for a Red Tac Gear ammo management system (takes 8 round velcro cards). Bauer Arms carries them.

Re: New GAP 7MM Rem Mag
Hey Ohiogunnut, how did you mount that Tango Down bipod on that AICS stock? I got the bipod and love it, but it doesn't fit on my AI.
I've been trying to figure out how to do that.

Re: New GAP 7MM Rem Mag
Cool. Thanks for the link.
Did you have the modify the tri-rail bipod adapter at all, or did it just fit in there? Does it wobble much?

Re: New GAP 7MM Rem Mag
I drilled and tapped the end of the spigot for a tension screw and added the two washers and to the other end a piece of pliable plastic (malice clip) which I cut to fit between the aluminum portion of the stock and the rail. The spigot was held in place by a single cross bolt which I removed. Locks up solid with no movement.

Re: New GAP 7MM Rem Mag
Hell of a rifle. I'd love to know what the total damage (cost) on the build was if you don't mind me asking. First time I've been inspired by some pictures of a custom rifle in awhile! I'll have to sell one of my TRG 42's and take this route - I love the 7mm Rem Mag. Thanks for showing this.

Re: New GAP 7MM Rem Mag
Ohio,
I see you are using the 30 cal SAS on your 7mm. I just got a Steyr 7mm rem mag and was thinking of using the SAS .338 Vengeance Ti suppressor so I could use it on a .338 SSG 08 later on. Will the .338 suppressor work on the 7mm rem mag?
Great looking digital camo job. I'll have to pay 30CalSniper for that work in desert digital!

Re: New GAP 7MM Rem Mag
Thank you. 7mm is 0.284, so a 0.308 cal can works as long as it is magnum rated (which a 0.338 would certainly be). May not be as efficient, but could make up for that due to the larger size. Above pics are out of date as I made a couple changes.

Re: New GAP 7MM Rem Mag
Nice pics,
What bipod is that? Never seen that one. Also, which spotting scope?

Re: New GAP 7MM Rem Mag
Did they cut the barrel to a SAAMI chamber or throat it longer for the 175/180's?

Re: New GAP 7MM Rem Mag
You have me on that one. When we were discussing the build I asked Moon to design it around the 180 VLD. I'm currently at work, but the load data I have with me shows a 3.3375 OAL being optimal (just touching the lands) with a velocity of 3043. I can verify if requested when I get home tonight.

Re: New GAP 7MM Rem Mag
Wow, just realized we are back on my pics from when the gun was first received. Check for the for sale ad for updated pics and specs.

Thank you, I am looking for someone who has a reamer optimized for the 175SMK's/180VLD's and you just answered the question. Now I wonder if they will cut barrels for Savages?
