Very nice rifle. How much did you spend? Have you shot it yet. If not remember to give us a range report when you do.

I feel guilty but I got it for 1500 with wilson dies and 50 lapua brass.As for how it shoots it shoots great it is just the driver that sucks.Went out today for more load development using n133 I was able to get .500 before deductions.

Good rifle for $1500.00. Here is a 6.5x55 custom by Karl of K&S Arms in Edmonton. I picked this one consigned at a local gunstore for $1500.00 as well. All I have done to it is change the paint color from a pukey yellow/green (found in a 1970's bathroom) to the blue...a little easier on the eyes and stomach.
Mauser 98 action, C3 Canadian sniper stock, Timney Trigger,trued action,glass bedded, new springs,lead weight in stock, barrel I believe is a Kreiger 1 in 8 twist, B&L 4200 36 power scope (with 2 sunshades). Shoots exceptional. I have more to learn but my target speaks for itself. Member Mystic Player has been a great help with load advice. Total weight 20 lbs.
