Here is my baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[FOTIS]

This is a Mark V Lazerark in 378 WBY.
It now sports a top of the line Krieger barrel. Action was blueprinted completely. Pillar bedded steel bedded and free-floated. Williams proprietary brake added. Recoil is like a 270 Win according to Williams. Shot with factory loads (Hornady 270 gr.) Average was .75"
Six months wait but worth it...I hope.
I will be breaking her in and then working up loads of

260 accubonds at 3150 fps.

250 TTSX at 3150-3200 fps

300 Cutting edge at 3100 fps.

I'm not a huge Weatherby or Lazermark fan, but that is a pretty sharp looking rig, and it should reach out there and touch something far, far away... hard. That new tube should stack them right on top of one another!

 

[DrMike]

It should definitely toss a hunk of lead a good distance. Now those pesky speed goats haven't a prayer! Good looking rifle, Fotis.

Fotis,

She looks great buddy! I hope the workmanship and accuracy exceeds your expectations.
Looking forward to the range report.

Everything looks spectacular Jim.

I just can not wait to see what she does accuracy wise.

 

[CatskillCrawler]

Very nice. Take lots of pictures and keep the grandparents involved.

grandparents ???????????? :?

 

[Guy Miner]

She's still a great looking rifle - and should shoot very well now. I'm a big fan of Krieger barrels, but none of mine have had quite that big a bore...

 

[IdahoCTD]

That must be a custom brake from the smith? I use to do the small holes like that but man were they loud. Let us know how it is for noise too.

Chromoly barrel?

 

[SJB358]

Very nice Fotis! I hope it stacks them!

 

[Hegland]

Sweet looking rig Fotis. Almost too pretty to hunt with...

 

[taylorce1]

Nice Big Boomer!!!!

 

[FOTIS]

Chromoly barrel?

Yup I opted for Chrome moly

 

[JD338]

Fotis,

3/4 MOA with factory ammo from a new barrel is very impressive to say the least.
I am thinking your loads, with those accurate Nosler bullets, should put you at a 1/2 MOA rifle.
That would be almost unreal to have that kind of horse power with that level of accuracy.
If you hit the 1/2 MOA mark, you MUST shoot a sage rat with it and post pictures for all of us to see. :mrgreen:
That wold make Rob grin big time. :wink:

6 months is a long time but it looks like it was worth it. A great shooter and beautiful to, a keeper. !!!!

 

[FOTIS]

Well here we go. Got this one in Shirley basin with my 416 Bee and 300 gr Barnes at 3125 fps. 225 yard shot.... Kind of tore him up.

 

[cloverleaf]

Holy Smokes! Antelope in the next township....bang flop! And it looks like that! CL

 

[DrMike]

Well, it does look as if it has enough "oomph" to take an antelope. Looks like it will indeed do!
