Here is a 7mm-08 that we recently completed. It is built off of a Remington Model 7 action, Benchmark 1/10 twist, 3 groove #5 contour barrel finished at 24" that we Duracoated. Glassbedded in a factory laminted stock. It is wearing a Leupold 4x12x40 VX II with A.O. and long range retical.
We finished it just in time for deer season and it should make a great deer rifle..

6BR




Here is a 6BR we built on a new Remington 700 short action. We squared the action and bolt, lapped the lugs, surface ground the recoil lug. The barrel is a Benchmark 1/12 twist 6mm chambered in 6mm BR and finished at 22". The stock is an HS Precision that we glass bedded the action into. It is wearing a Nikon Buckmaster 4.5x14 scope in leupold rings & bases.




The pic of the target shows the first round fired out of the gun which hit to the left at 9:00. The retical was adjusted and 3 more rounds were fired of Hornady 65gr V max and they all three are in the group to the right at 3:00.

This is a Xr-100 that we rebarreled (sorry for the poor pic). We squared the action and bolt, lapped the lugs, surface ground the recoil lug, glassbedded the action and installed a 1/8 twist Benchmark barrel and finished it at 28 1/2". Caliber is 6 BR. The customer brought the target by the shop that he shoot at 100 yds, the group is 5 shoots and measuring from outside to outside and subtracting the bullet dia. it measured .015. Very fine shooting on our customers part..

This is a sniper rifle we were contracted to build for a Police Dept. It is a Remington 700 short action glassbedded into an HS Precision stock using a Benchmark 3 groove barrel chambered in 308 win, Leupold Mark 4 scope with night vision mount milled into the stock in the forend.
After barrel breakin this rifle shot one group measuring .326 and one measuring .244 at 100 yds using Federal Gold Medal match 168 gr factory ammo.

Here is a switch barrel we built for a customer. It is built off of a Remington 700 long action, Recoil lug has been pinned with two pins into the action. Action has been bedded into a Mcmillian HTG stock. It currently has two barrels, one in 243 win. and one in 22-250 rem. Both barrels and action have been duracoated..
By doing the two pins holding the recoil lug and using a rear entry action wrench we provide you are able to change barrels without taking the action out of the stock..
