Hey guys I am in the process of getting a new rifle built. My intentions for this rifle was an accurate long range back pack rifle. Basically a do it all rifle. This is my first full on custom build and have learned a lot along the way. If any body wants a rifle built feel free to PM me and I can share the smiths info. I will give props to my smith as he has been great to work with me and explain things along the way. A fellow member here sent me to him and I am so glad I went this route. He invited me over to watch it being chambered and I'm not sure many would allow that. Here is a list of items used in the build and some pics of the process. I wish I had taken pics while chambering but I didn't. This is what I have for pics so far and expect the rifle back from Custom Gun Coatings soon. CGC is doing the stock paint. I had my smith cera coat all the metal except for the bolt which is NP3. I should add this rifle is chambered in 7MM Rem Mag and chambered to shoot Berger VLD 168's.
Remington 700 action Blue printed and trued.
PTG Fluted Bolt NP3 coated
PTG straight bolt handle, and bottom metal
Timney 510 trigger

APA Lil bastard brake with knurled threaded cap
All metal Cera coated black
Seekins rings, and front 3" bipod rail

I'm sure I may have forgotten something along the way. Here are some pics so far and feel free to ask any questions.
