Here is my fully custom Remington 700 5R Gen II in 6.5CM ;)

I am so happy with this rifle. It's fit, finish, smoothness, and accuracy give it custom qualities. I got it with the fluted bolt and 40X trigger for $850!!

I've run a bunch of others, too, and the Kelbly is my favorite by far and it's the lease expensive. I don't know how long they'll be priced where they are but it can't be much longer.

I just finished up another 65SS replacing a Defiance UL with the Kelbly.

You boys are making me more and more excited about this build coming my way! Hoping any day now my 6mm creed on a kelbly atlas will be here
 
"Huntsman22 awesome pics...your specs are kinda what I'm looking to do.
Did you put together yourself"


yessir. Barreled actions (shouldered prefits) from/thru Bighorn, bought the rest of the parts and screwed it all together when I got the barreled action in.... It was a good way to go, for me.
 
Here's my 6.5 PRC
Defiance Rebel XM Medium Action
Timney Calvin Elite Trigger
24" #1 contour 1-8 twist Benchmark
Wildcat Composite with Palm Swell and High Comb added
Talleys holding a Zeiss V4 4-16x44
Shoots both Factory Hornady loads into 1/2" groups
Loves 54.5gr R26 and 143gr ELD-X

would like to try a #2 contour fluted barrel on this one, other than that its a dream to shoot and carry.



 
My GAP-10
6.5 creedmoor 21" 1-8 bartlien-APA little Jimmy brake.
NSX 5.5-22x50-NF flip up scope covers
Some other AR enhancement-Vertical Grip by BCM and their steeper angle pistol grip-KA keymod barrier stops

Shoots 1/4-1/3 moa with factory 143's

here's my budget build 6.5 PRC

Sako A7 7mm Rem Mag donor
26" #3 contour HawkHill 1-8 twist
Talleys and a Zeiss V4 4-16x44
First time out at the range It shot a 1.2" group :( at 100 yards with Hornady 143gr ELD-X factory ammo, so I try a Cpl groups at 300 yards, 1st one was 1.4", after a good cleaning next group at 300 yards was .973" :):cool:
I have some 10 shot strings loaded up to try out with R26/H1000 and Berger 140gr Elite Hunters





 
Im embarrassed to post a pic of my rifle. You fellas have some pretty sweet rigs compared to mine. Mine is is just a factory Rem 700 5R Gen 2 with a straight Timmney trigger and a bedded stock with a Nightforce SHV. But it shoots great with factory ammo! Half inch 5 shot groups at 100.
