Just wanted to give my local gunsmith, Ron Roark Gunsmithing out of Newbury Park CA, some well deserved recognition! I started with a Remington 700 and he trued the action, lapped the lugs, squared the bolt face, installed the Bartlien blank 30 cal 1:11.25 twist, a holland muzzle brake, and did a glass bedding of the stock to the action. Ron was open to questions, worked fast on the project, very reasonable on what he charges compared to other local gun smiths, just an all around good guy. I can not say enough, if you have a progject and live in the southern California area this is the guy for the job! After I did some load development with my rifle I shoot a .062 MOA at 100 yards, less than 1/10 of a MOA, three bullets, one hole, using a bipod and a rear bag (A badger bones bag).

Please feel free to PM me if you have any further questions. Like I said I don't know how to put into words how nice it was to work with Ron on this build and to see the outcome and how it shoots is just awesome!
