Custom lefty rem 700, 6.5 creedmoor (range update)

[knotty]

After a year of gathering parts, I was finally able to have them put together. It weights around 16 lbs, scoped, with the 26" barrel. It's chambered in 6.5 creedmoor. I gave in to the 6.5mm (.264) coolaid. Casey did a superb job.
Specs:
26" Krieger Barrel #10 contour
Blueprinted action
Timney trigger
near 30 moa scope base (best machined part I've ever seen)
ATRS bottom metal
McMillan A5 stock
KG gunkote flat black
Premier 3-15x50, badger USMC rings
Short action customs side bolt release (installed by Casey)

Sounds like a recipe for success!
Looks great. The side bolt release was a nice touch.

In a word, Badass!
Casey turns out some nice work.
Excellent cartridge choice as I love 6.5mm anything and please make sure you give us a range report.

[dfarrell]

Looks perfect but your bolt is on the wrong side!

Have you got a chance to shoot it yet?

 

[Slug870]

Wow! That is a good lookin' rig!

Can't wait to see the range report. Thank you for posting.

Sorry about the pics, it was edited by a mod i think to make them integral but it didn't work. So i changed it back to a link. I'll be taking her out this weekend.

16lbs! Holy moly. Are you sure 16lbs?

 

[Tikka223]

That scope makes your rifle look like it's the size of a .22!

 

[knotty]

Its pretty close to 16 lbs, the scope, rings and barrel are 10 lbs themselves. Then probably 5 or 6 for the stock, action and bipod. I weighted it on my bathroom scale, myself, then with the gun and subtracted. It is heavy though.

Very nice!!
All the good stuff in a nice clean package...I love it!

Bolt is on the wrong side....

*crys a little*

.... Its just so...so,.. Beautiful

Seriously tho, I would love to have the same or similar rifle built sometime!

 

[cooey1981]

Love it! Whats a rig like that worth?

That premier heritage looks amazing! Who did you get it from?

 

[knotty]

I got the premier from a member here, he original said he got it from PGW. As for the cost, its around $450 / pound.

Nice this is exactly where my mind drifts off to when I'm thinking about re barrel on my left hand 700 only I was thinking 6.5x47 lapua

 

[knotty]

I was thinking about the lapua, but it's harder to get locally and it's almost twice the price. I can get the creedmoor at $28 for 20 and perform ballistically the same.
