The Varmints are coming!!!!

Patience rewarded. I was in line from early on, and know it doesn't help to bother these fine engineers. My rifle is the best thing I've handled, of any of my purchases in the firearms business. Don't bother them, they are creating such fine pieces. I played with colours. Your mileage may vary. But I crap you not, you will choose this rifle as your closeup partner or cqb or final friend.

I know that I want 3 more.

That's a beauty! Congrats!

OK, I got my optic mounted and did a little photo shoot. Enjoy.



This one has the 1:8 stainless Lilja medium contour barrel (18.5"), the Fortis Switch 14" hand guard, ATRS brake, Ergo Sure Grip, CTR butt, Cerakoted black. My add-ons; Nightforce NXS 1-4x24 w/FC-3G reticle with illumination, Burris p.e.p.r. mount. I also have a hook type sling mount just behind the receiver for a single point sling. And I may add a front handle of some sort later.







Fit and finish look impeccable; just like the Modern Hunter. And as Rick mentioned above, the GB has been machined. There is now more than .050" clearance from the Fortis. I can't wait to get it out to the range and then varmint eradication follows...

Edit: Something I noticed right away. This one has the same serial number as my Modern Hunter. How cool is that?! Rick told me that because I was inside the first 75 on both, that the numbers would be matched. Unfortunately, I just sold my MH to finance another build.

Very nice! I am really interested in one and I was wondering how much does yours weight?

Is there suppose to be any diffrence in accuracy of the light and medium profile barrel or just less affected by heat?

No , just how many shots you can put out before heat starts to deflect the barrel thereby changing the POI.

Thanks ATR and 6MT

Also I was wondering if the fortus rev 2 is compatible with the modern varminter?

I am preparing myself to pre order and I just want to have all my bases coverd!

All thread activity is very exciting. I can't wait to hear from ATRS about my MV. Thank you to all the people who posted pics, it is really nice for those of us still waiting.

FYI-gentlemen,
light barrel- it weighs exactly 1lb more with kfs tacmod and commercial buffer installed

Now that is what I was hopping to see
