Another Remmy
Yeah, just another remmy but this thing is gonna be badass, gonna have to wait 3 weeks so I can finish her up (300WM), The barrel and brake alone are 10#, so you not much use for the lightweight guys I guess. Have a Stiller TAC 300 coming so will probably have to sell this one when done. Still need to chamber and time the brake then finish and Bed. Have a PTG diamond ground fluted bolt coming for it.

Just a few rounds I had in the tickle trunk, factory ammo off the hood of the truck with no rear bag so you'll have to cut me a little slack for now. The pic is only like 60m to check my boresight job, gotta love picatinny rails, swapped scope off another rifle and only off a few clicks to the left. I have a bunch of 178 amax loaded up but had to head back to work.

This is a hobby for you?! Holy sh** man! I wish I could get into a "hobby" that much! The build is looking cool, should definitely be nice! You'll be rolling in the dough in no time working on the boomsticks.

The thing is theres about $2300 worth of components there, and that's with a stock trigger, then many hrs of work to properly assemble and finish, not to many guys will pay 3K+ for a Remington. And a huge cost in tooling, machines etc. So cut your gunsmith a little slack and don't complain about the cost of his great work, if anything give him a tip! And be happy you are getting something that can't be bought in a store.
