This is pretty close to the actual color. Mark's machining is top notch. Hope to have a suppressor mounted up soon

Here's the build:

Badger M2008
Badger M-5 DBM
Bartien 24" Thd bbl(which supressor is TBD)
Jewel trigger
Manners T4A
Vortex Razor 5-20x50
Vortex Razor 35mm rings
Cerakote finish


Mark over at Short Action Customs AKA US Handgunner here on the hide did the work. His CS is fan-freaking-tastic, his prices are excellent and his turnaround is blazing. Also, any suggestions on a suppressor for this thing would be appreciated! Hope to have a range report this Saturday.

Here's Marks Info:

Re: New 6.5 Creedmoor on a Badger M2008 buil by S.A.C.

AAC Cyclone. Quietest for .308, no reason it shouldn't be great on a 6.5.

Re: New 6.5 Creedmoor on a Badger M2008 buil by S.

In the words of Borat, "Very Nice."

+1 for 6.5 too, regardless of which case is pushing it. (Creedmoor is great)
 
Re: New 6.5 Creedmoor on a Badger M2008 buil by S.

Nice rig congrats and welcome to the Creedmoor family!!

Re: New 6.5 Creedmoor on a Badger M2008 buil by S.

Very Nice!!

Well, I really like the shorter bolt throw alot. I like that I can swap bolt knobs on a whim. I need to work the bolt a bit to work the cerakote its a pretty tight fit right now but there is less "chatter" than the Templar. I think this baby is gonna be a hammer. loading up some Amax's and Scenars 140's and 139's and hopefully bust a mulie this weekend.

got skunked on the Mulies today, saw several just none I wanted to shoot bad enough to clean. had a good time though. Now I gotta study for my state FF certification! I've gotta job as long as I pass that sucker!
 
Re: New 6.5 Creedmoor on a Badger M2008 buil by S.

Good luck Hunter, on the mulies and more importantly on your certification!!

Re: New 6.5 Creedmoor on a Badger M2008 buil by S.

Range update:

best group of the day with most being very similar: .180moa 3rnd group 4th and 5th shot opened it up to .38moa. All shot at 200yds. I'd say it's a hammer. Thanks again Mark(US Handgunner owner of Short Action Customs) for building the most precise rifle I've owned.
 
Re: New 6.5 Creedmoor on a Badger M2008 buil by S.

I like your new rifle Hunter. The BO action is rather robust.

I still haven't had a chance to re-stock the barreled action yet. Maybe New Year's week.

Get to it! That thing is a hammer too.
