Absolutely beautiful area.

What is the poundage adjustable to, and where are you located?

I'll buy it from you. Can it be shipped? My daughters gonna be four in a couple months I've been thinking about getting one.

What website is this from?

Shoot, I'm in Tucson I have a set of rcbs dies that I probably won't use anymore.

I don't think you could go wrong with either. The 6.5CM is definitely a popular caliber right now. If you're in Tucson Kyle with Craig's Custom Rifles does great work. it's always fun thinking about a new build. I have a .243 I'm either going to go the 6.5 direction with or just get a tighter twist match barrel for. Kurt

where are you located?

Sportsmans had some yesterday in Tucson.

Man I want one of those! Good luck with sale, that thing is sweet!

Good shooting! I bet those groups will continue to shrink. Kyle built me a semi custom 7mag and that thing is the easiest to load for. Shoots 1/2 moa or better with a wide variety Of bullet weights and brands. Again, nice rifle and thanks for sharing the results.

Sweet rifle! I'm sure it will shoot great, Kyle does some awesome work.

Wish you were in Tucson. Good luck with the sale I'm sure it will go quick.

Thanks for the explanation and for sharing your knowledge. Always enjoy reading your posts.

Thanks for sharing. Good groups with some great velocities! Just curious what will opening up the meplat do?

I just noticed looking back at your ladder test the "disregard the 20 warm up shots" from your 6.5 at 300 yards... That's pretty incredible!! Not to take away from the 7 mag highlight but holy cow!! Nice shooting.

Looking into a new scale and curious if anyone has any experience with the Myweigh Gempro 250?

I'm glad you got ahold of some! Pretty curious to see how they do and what velocities you get out of them.

Holy cow! Wish I had some money to spare. These won't last.

Wow, impressive velocities! Thanks for sharing, and as always, nice shooting.

Great deal!!

I'm sure if you felt strongly about him wanting you to leave it "as is" you would have respected him and done so. I see nothing wrong with building a new rifle out of it, the heart of the gun is the action so that will always be there. Like others, this is just my opinion. I did the same with my 7mag that my dad had for 20 years. My dads still alive, thankfully, and I'll never forget the smile on his face as he said "that was amazing!" When he shot his deer at a distance that more than doubled any distance he had shot an animal at before. And as mentioned previously I'm pretty excited to see the end result.

Midway has 183 SMK in stock. I'm planning on trying them in my 7mag. I run the 180 vld with h1000 at a bit over 2840 just haven't had a tag to shoot anything with. My cousin runs the 180 hybrids in his lrm's and 28nosler and definitely speaks highly of them with their performance on game. Can't wait to see the finished result of your memorial rifle... I think I'm safe to say you're pretty well known around here for producing some awesome end results with your builds.

Looks like a pretty buck! Did you get any mearns? I've always wanted to hunt them.

Congrats on a great bull! Doesn't surprise me, you and your Kevin are always killing stud bulls and bucks. Kurt

I recently upgraded to an Atlas. Love it so far.
