Aushunter1. Is that a clamp on muzzle brake?

No its actually a Sako TRG brake, I got the muzzle threaded in M18x1 after the top picture.
Id rather have a suppressor/moderator by we aren't really allowed to have them here unless you ally for a prohibited weapons permit which is way to complicated to worry about.

View attachment 127079 Is it wrong to post a non-custom but slightly customized rifle? I haven't gone down the custom route but if I did I think it would be with the Lone Peak Razor TI, Christensen Arms carbon wrapped barrel with titanium side port brake (support the locals) in a Manners EH1 midnight camo stock.

Another one of my babies:
Christensen Arms Ridgeline 6.5 PRC in a Mesa Precision Arms Altitude CF/camo CA titanium side port brake clocked without the crush washer.
Talley one piece mounts.
Vortex Razor HD AMG.
Total weight 7lbs unloaded.

Love the look of this rifle! Is it really only 7 lbs with a 29 oz scope on it?

 

[460 magnum]

Looks like it even has a carbon fiber stock

The stock is 26oz or so, 8oz lighter than stock, so I'd guess to say the rifle is close to 5.9# roughly minus optics. That's just going off weights posted by Christensen and Mesa for the stock swap.

Sorry. I had the Swarovski Z5 on it. I switched to the AMG and didn't update my spreadsheet. I just weighed it at 7 3/4 lbs.

 

[Shawn1234]

That's still pretty light, nice setup.
