Thought I would share my build with everyone. So far, I gathered all my components and their at my gunsmith's Shop. The action is a left hand defiance renegade. It wears a trigger tech special with a flat shoe. The pipe is a steel 20" proof 338 heavy Palma 1-9.4 twist. The stock is a left hand chalk Branch in winter pine. Bottom metal is Hawkins hunter BDM. The Glass is Leica PRS 5-30x56I with PRB Reticle. The rings are Zeiss UL med Rings with level. This will mainly be a hunting rig. I will be using monos in 225-250 gr and be shooting 250 Berger for plinking. The barrel will be threaded for hybrid 46M. This should be a handy rifle with some reach. I know people hate short barrels but when wearing a suppressor balance matters. Plus this rig will come in handy hunting dark timber. Bought all my build supplies last Black Friday and cyber-Monday. The Norma is replacing my 338 SS which also sported a 20" barrel running the same suppressor. I will post load data and weight once complete.
