Funny, mine is the same left to right in the barrel channel
I painted because I can be anal about stuff (and rough as guts on others, who figures).

Seems to be a large variance on price with agents, I was priced from 1400-2000.. I would not have been too pleased with $2000 for this. But for $1400 it's fine.
If you are interested in the weight, the following is in grams
Bolt 364
Stock 743
Mag plate + box and spring 233
Action trigger rings(Talley) barrel 1533

That's a great price, I paid $1700 for mine.

Where was that from?

New little custom build put together by @Kiwi Greg

Lightened Remington SA, 16” Hardy barrel in a McMillan carbon stock.

30 ARX, basically a 6.5 Grendel necked up to 30 cal.

Nice light little rig that shoots straight. Group below was one off a cold barrel then 4 on top of each other. Pleasantly surprised with the performance.

Love it. Hows it compare to 300blkout?

Bit more omph.

It's sending a 125 grain projectile @ 2660 fps.

That group I pictured was at 100 metres.

V.nice.

The family photo, well the one on the left is an orphan, but it's welcome.

From right to left, my guess:

6.5 Creedmoor, 308 Winchester, 7mm Rem Mag and 338 Norma Magnum(or Lapua Mag).

What a family!!!

So that is basically 7.62x39 improved?

Nar....impossible to improve a 7.62 X 39....the Ruskies got it right first go......

She's heavy and expensive to feed but shoots very well. Roughly 1/3 MOA at 100 and 300 metres on paper, and hits on gongs out to 2k.
