So Jerry. Do you have any other super awesome benchrest rifles to show off. I've read the article on the free floating stevens action in 6.6 like 1 million times. What other awesomeness do you have burning up the competitions.

EDIT: It was late and I typed his first and last name as one name. I think that was how my brain was working at the time.

I once heard of this fellow that came to a shoot with some sort of mystical rifle but he never took it out of its case as were only shooting up to 500 meters and for distances below 1000 meters he used the sling shot he kept in his back pocket. Was that MysticPlayer?
 
What Is A Troll?

If you "google" the word troll you find many definitions...

An individual who chronically trolls in sense 1; regularly posts specious arguments, flames or personal attacks to a newsgroup, discussion list, or in email for no other purpose than to annoy someone or disrupt a discussion. Trolls are recognizable by the fact that they have no real interest in learning about the topic at hand - they simply want to utter flame bait. Like the ugly creatures they are named after, they exhibit no redeeming characteristics, and as such, they are recognized as a lower form of life on the net.


The term derives from "trolling", a style of fishing which involves trailing bait through a likely spot hoping for a bite. The troll posts a message, often in response to an honest question, that is intended to upset, disrupt or simply insult the group.
 
Jeez. You think I was flaming him. I was hoping that maybe he would post a couple of articles about other builds he's done or something.

Guess I forgot that the internet is SERIOUS BUSINESS!!11
 
I would like him to show a few post of how he beds his savage stocks.

And

Him showing us how he changes his Savage barrels.
 
Been busy putting ads together and answering PM's.

The newest toy is a 6 Mystic in a Richardson BR stock. Will try and post some pics shortly. I really like the feel of the stock but there is quite a bit of woodworking needed to finish. Rides the bags very well. Lots of lead added to raise to 20lbs overall for F class. Recoil is mild with 108gr Bergers.

The 6 Mystic was a redo of an old idea. Take a 243AI reamer and headspace a chamber off 22/250 Win brass. What you end up with is a poor's man version of the 6XC and 6-6.5X47L. Case volume is quite a bit larger so you can get the same velocities without running the same pressures.

Case is approx 4 grains more capacity. Nothing revolutionary but a fun project never the less.

I think the ideal reamer would have been a 6 Dasher. The 243AI reamer that was used is a few thou too big at the case head. You get a very slight bulge. Doesn't affect anything. Just looks odd.

Call it the little brother to my 6.5 Mystic.

Last week, I bedded a Stevens 223 into a Low Profile lam stock. Again, a very nice proportioned stock with VERY generous inletting. Really enjoy the feel and the weight. Nice finish and comfy recoil pad for a change. The barrel channel was cut for a varmint contour so there is lots of space around the sporter barrel.

Still shoots very well and there is zero issue with cooling. A bit more tuning but I hope to hold 3/8 min at 200yds. Pretty close.

The 6.5 Mystic now sports an adj scope base so that I can get mondo elevation adjustment for extreme range shooting. Adj cheek rest too. Took it out to 2.09km a couple of weeks back. That would be 2300yds - GPS ranged. approx 5 second time of flight.

Gives you alot of time to spot your own shots. In fact, you look away because it takes so long. Will try to get out to 2600+yds if I get some time and calm air before the snow falls.

No real projects on the books in the near future. Focusing on trying to get you guys to spend your hard earned cash on more toys :) AND fight the horrors of volatile currency.

Keep an eye out for pics...

Jerry

Deadly, ninja, Chuck Norris, with a little Charles Bronson serious. And dangerous, just like lumberjack commandos. Watch yourself.......:slap:
 
I heard that once on a dare, Jerry threw a live 22 short in the air. Then he bent over and launced a pebble from his butt. That pebble hit the 22 short round and led to the demise of a certian president attending a certain theater. I'm not saying, I'm just sayin.

That stock sounds familiar. ;)
Post a pic when you get a chance.

Cheers!
