New rifle

[fiveptbill]

This is my new hunting rifle. I know it doesn't look like your classic rifle but it sure shoots. I am working on a load right now but I have it down around a half inch. Stiller Tac 300 action, Green Mountain Barrel, Timney Trigger, XLR industries Chassis.

300 Rum 200 grain Barnes LRX 92 grains of Retumbo.

Heck of a beanfield rig. Flash suppressor or brake?

Those chassis are way cool looking. I've thought about one for my 260 Rem, but may go with a McMillan due to costs. That one looks like it will have plenty of reach...

 

[fiveptbill]

Muzzle break that works great. I looked at a Mcmillian also but for the cost and weight I went with the chassis.

Thats a different looking hunting rig for sure.

Whats the scope?

 

[fiveptbill]

Burris XTR 6-24

I hope you hunt from the truck! I wouldn't carry around a rifle that heavy! Looks like fun though.

 

[fiveptbill]

The way I figure it I can always lose a couple of pounds to make up for the weight of my rifle.

 

[noharleyyet]

You hike with it fivept?

 

[fiveptbill]

I have a good sling and I also attach it to my pack.

Good caliber and round...look fwd to some field pics with it, good luck.

Crazy heavy for mountain hunting, and I'd never put a box mag on my hunting rifle
