Built by Dean through camwsm, top notch work.
7mm blaser, defiance rebel, manners Eh1, trigertech special, nightforce NX-8
Tirau,, how did you get on finding brass/ dies for this???
Been buying them over the last couple years, got 50 brass last year payed $350 for it. First 50 I got was under $200. Workshop innovation should be able to get the dies.
I’ve also read Norma has discontinued the brass, yet to be confirmed. If that’s the case kicking myself should have built a LRM
That brass if you look after it should last the barrel. if its hot not so much. very cool build pretty much the same as my 30 nosler. I like the stock colour, is it straight carbon fibre or is it something else? (scorched earth). The 7lrm would also be regreated as it will be close to the 7mm prc they are adjusting the reamer for according to aaron davision from gunwerks in the us.
Their Was 100 brass and dies on trademe recently for $400. Hopefully Adg picks up blaser mag . It’s a primo cartridge
One of these just popped up on trade me, nice looking rifles alright.

Here's one of my new toys, after going against the "every cunt has a T3" flood for a few years I'm coming back to em & have two lol, they are nice bit's of kit & nowadays seem to be the bolt action equivalent of an AR with all the extra shit you can easily get & stick on them, plus they come in some many funky colours hahaha
T3 Alpine in 6.5prc ( thanks to Ken @ 55Six ) put a new sharper pistol grip & cheek riser on her, Illuminated 3.5 -18 Z5 ( I like the improvements on this scope ) & off she goes, shoots factory ammo & reloads mint
Shoot it, root it & then BBQ it !!!
not new but new to me,even took it out of a late stag but alas nothing bigger than 5 pointer seen
Picked this up at the gun auction in Wgtn on the weekend. Single square bridge original Mauser from the 30's. Its had a hard life -Swiss cheesed action from old scope mounts, modified bolt handle, poorly fitted side safety and free floated forend around the barrel. But the barrel has an excellent bore (a Douglas fitted by Dinny Collings in 1968) and the bolt is smooth as they get. You'd struggle to buy the barrel & bottom metal by themselves for 250 clams which is what it cost. It's a 30-06. Nice that an old friend had worked on it too.
