Just wanted to thank ATRS in particular Dustin for his help with my new build.
The finishing touches included caliber engraving, a very sweet bedding job and a coat of Cerakote in Flat black.

I have always been impressed by the work ATRS does and will be back for my goodies (rear bag and Harris last things on the list)
So if anyone is contemplating a paint job, I would highly recommend these guys. My Benelli SBE2 shotgun was painted by them almost 4 years ago and it looks new as the day I picked it up from them, truly bombproof paint. Time to run to the range!

I've had ATRS build me two rifles and, like the OP, I too have been most pleased with the work. I am very fussy about things and have not been at all disappointed with their work. The work isn't just pretty, it is plenty functional - Just come back from a range session and measured my best group shot out of my ATRS Defiance and it was under (15/16) one inch at 200 meters.

OP congrats on a nice looking build and thanks for posting.

so explain what this all is here

It is a Stevens model 200 action to begin with.

Shilen Select Match SS barrel in 260 Remington with a new heavy precision ground recoil lug

Wears a HS Precision 'Tactical' style stock that I find amazingly comfortable with a great palm swell. Features aluminum bedding block as well as bedded by ATRS.

Trigger is a Rifle Basix Sav 1 adjustable from 14oz- 3lbs, very nice and crisp with a lot of different adjustment in it.

EGW bolt knob I installed myself, felt pretty good about tackling the machining with my Dremel and dye set!

The whole barreled action was Cerakoted flat black by ATRS.

El cheapo bipod, but it seems okay for now, most likely going to shoot off bags anyways.

Finally, as you can probably see it is topped off with a Nightforce NXS 5.5-22x56mm with the NPR2.

Everything in, tips the scales at around 15lbs.
 
Not to hijack the discussion of your rifle, but just want to give a shout-out to Rick and the guys at ATR as well, for rebarreling my rifle. Just a thanks for a timely, and from all indications so far, great job.
