The rifle specs are as follows.

Valkyrie short action with 20 moa rail and custom knob.

Truflite barrel finished at 25" and custom fluted. 18mm x 1.5 muzzle thread to accomodate Accuracy international muzzle brake.

Brugger and Thomet moderator on left hand thread.

Jewell trigger.

Nightforce nxs 5.5 - 22 x 50 in Badger rings.

AICS stock, action bedded into it.

Multicam duracoat paintwork to the stock.

Barrelled action done in duracoat "Parker" and flutes on barrel and bolt picked out in tactical flat black.

Hopefully get some rounds loaded up and a round or two through it on Sunday.

Let me know how you get on with the BT can , as I have one as well , its bloody heavy & only lasted less than 100 rds before , getting so loose inside , that It now rattles a lot .
It also gets a lot hotter than my bigger old model A-Tec jobie , and much longer to cool down .

Cheers Chris

Baldie, you've got far too many rifles now and as my next build is going to be a .260 how about you donating it to me for some field trials ;o)
Looks seriously good now its all put together mate and that custom action of yours is as smooth as butter! Looking forward to seeing the results.
