Here you go guys. Well worth the wait and have a second one on order. Most versatile and perfectly balanced rifle I have ever shot!!! Scope is Vortex Razor HD 5-20 in 20 MOA Spuhr mount.

Second time out at 100 yds in wind (20-30 mph gust from L>R). 1st shot left to judge wind. Shots 2-5 in center (3 pretty much through same hole)! Sixth shot to the right was me-really starting to rain harder!

Be patient, I promise you won't be disappointed. Mine came in 260 and 308 and have 338 on order, which should be here in a week or so.... Love the 260 with muzzle brake and uses the same bolt head and magazine. Even the 338 magazines are the same size! Good Luck 8-)

This is awesome. Incredible grouping for that kinda wind (it looks like it was at least holding consistent value and strength...).

thanks for the great pics!

had my chassis for quite a while and finally got ahold of the barrel (6.5x47) so i took it out for the first time yesterday. didn't bother to zero, just left my scope zeroed where it was from the old 6.5 it was on. bore sighted it and could see that it was darn near good to go. took a couple shots at a steel square (about 24"x36") at 600 yds. could see that i has lost a shade of velocity due to the shorter barrel. so i added a a couple clicks of elevation and tried for the 10" round steel at 1050 yds.....ding first hit. thanks to mark gordon at short action customs for building a beautiful barrel.
borrowed the can for the pic. my form 4's are many months away.

Chubbles, Great looking rifle and shooting. My TBAC suppressors are also months away and with this Government shutdown, who knows?

Yesterday at the range put 8 out of 10 rounds square on 6" steel diamond at 550 yards. First shot was a little high. Loving the 308 22" barrel. Can't wait to get more time with the 260 26" conversion though. Will keep you all updated!

i will never go back to conventional rifles after the srs. cannot imaging carrying around and maneuvering a behemoth rem 700 style gun with painfully long barrels. i hope DT is around for a good long time.
