[BCX]

Just wanted to give Mark @ SAC a thank you... should be in my hands tomorrow.

Hell yeah. That's some sweet long range firepower right there. I like that Cerakote color a lot.

What are the specs?

 

[BurnOut]

Vera niiiize.... I have a DTA barrel from Mark in that chambering, and absolutely love it. Happy shooting, man!

 

[deersniper]

Oh that is sweet. I have a DT 223 conversion from them. They know how to make accurate barrels. They are my go to now.

Mark built my Defiance Proof CF 338 LM AI. Guns a shooter.

Awesome LOONNNGGGGGGGG stick. Sick build.

Did Mark cerokote your Trigger Tech? Looks gold in the pic!

 

[surgeon260]

23.5 lbs. It's sporting to carry, but that weight, plus the can, makes 6200 ft-lbs feel like a 260.

No the trigger isn't Cerakoted. It was a black Friday limited edition TT Diamond with gold PVD finish. The safety is gold too.

 

[BCX]

Only triggers i run now TT Diamond Flat Shoes.,,, picked 2 more up on Black Friday for hunting rifles.

 

[surgeon260]

I love the Diamond too. My hunting 7 mag has one as well. Although I'm not replacing my 1lb Jewells. That's a hell of a nice trigger also.

 

[Simia Dei]

I used to have a similar pig in 300NM. Sold it because the stiller action was not my cup of tea. I've got the lap boltface itch again, will be an AXMC this round. That JAE build has me questioning that decision though...

 

[surgeon260]

Questioning why? You mean from a weight perspective?

 

[BCX]

Everything i have shot in this rifle is well under sub .5 moa. 5 different loads, 2 different bullets, 1 grain increments, today prone w soft rear bag. Clean barrel,,,, .54 w 2 missing tips from 285 ELD. Used them to foul the bore. 300 Berger's and 285 ELD- .387, .281, .311, .344. Im sure this rifle shoots much better than i can. I have shot some groups prone on windless days under .200. All of my SAC rifles have been shooters. Thanks Mark!
