I actually have that wrench from Wheeler already in a scope mounting kit.

The stock is hand laid carbon fiber, 15 LOP and made to my measurements. Fist synthetic that fits me. I have had a lot of problems with nice walnut and I lean more towards synthetics these days.

No bottom metal so the blind magazine cuts weight a bit. I really really like the rounded shape without bottom metal, you can load 4 rounds but the bolt will not close with 4 down. So three down and one in the chamber.

It shoots well under 1 inch with 300gr Barnes X and a healthy dose of RL 15.

I’ll try and take more photos shortly, the sights are great and it has some cool details worth looking at.

Now, do I get the sister rifle made up in 300 Win or .......

Thanks for the comments gents.




Is that one of their own stocks???

As to wrench..yes, I also have owned that same one for several years..actually bought it at a local gun shop.. works well..and use it on almost everything..tighten it back up to manufacturers specs...
