You should enjoy it, mine's a tack driver. View attachment 34822 18” McGowen modified HBAR, dual fluted, glass beaded, hand lapped, Cryo stress relieved SS barrel; Syrac adj gas block, Mega Arms ambidextrous billet receiver set, WMD NiB BCG with AA hard use bolt, Geissele Speed NM firing group, Magpul PRS stock w/monopod, Ergo grip, Seekins 15” guard, TBAC Ultra-9 brake/can mount & Bushnell Elite glass.
The first 7 rounds down the pipe were handloads, recipe from a manual. 1st on closer paper, the rest at 100 yrds. 2nd is the lower hole, the next 5 were aimed at the lower hole. My son did the last 5, he's got much better vision.

Oooooh, that's pretty. The only thing I would change is where it's parked, put it in my safe lol.

What bullets are you using? I don't reload, yet, but I am going to when we have the time and space. Luckily I can shoot factory ammo and build up brass for that.

What does that rifle weigh?
 
Weight? I don't know, more than I'd like it to be, nut that also helps it to be more steady than my lighter rifles.
I'm loading Berger 130g VLD's in Lapua brass, BL-C(2) powder with CCI #41 primers. I'll try the Berger Hybrids after I use what I have.
I also have a NIB sister barrel. A friend wanted me to get it when I ordered mine, then he couldn't move forward with his project.
 
My lower is in, at Gunrunners, picking it up tomorrow.

Upper status is still GTG, meaning it's in production. Still highly anxious to get it, just wish it would be sooner lol.
