Show me your 20 inch barrelled bolt actions!

[saltbait]

Looking to rebarrel my 308 with a thick 20" barrel. Leaning towards an m24/m40 contour barrel, but nothings is 100% yet.

Lets see those short barrelled bolt actions!

Not mine and not a 20" but still real cool.

Ruger Precision Rifle in 223 and 308 is 20".

I have a 20” 375. Still heavy to carry around hunting. I’m becoming a fan of light rifles, like Kimber mountain ascent. Might be a different goal than you though.

I’ve been looking at a 20” m24/m40 but it might be a wee bit excessive. Looking mostly at bartlein contours. Interested to see some pictures of the bartlein modified light varmint profile.

I gave up on my heavy barrelled 308’s.
Fun at the range but no fun to carry.
I’m currently outfitting a tikka battue(it’s a real fugly bastardization) for hunting and keep the heavy stuff for range use.

How can you hunt with a suppressor? I thought they were prohibited?

He's in Ireland...check his avatar....oddly depite dracponian class based gun laws they can use suppresors...in fact mandatory in some areas/circumstances i believe.

We here in Canada are as usual....banned.

This one is just a sweet and simple Savage hog hunter in .223 with an MDT chassis. The grip is a magpul K. The glass is just temporary until I can upgrade but this one will stay as a budget rifle so it will likely be a vortex DB tactical FFP or equivalent.

Another "sweet and simple" Savage Hog Hunter in 223. MDT chassis and hand grip. Yet to upgrade scope rail and get a muzzle brake. Goal was to put together a target/hunting/SHTF accurate bolt action for as little money as possible. Shoots sub MOA with 68gr Hornady.
