Just put this together last week, bought it for the girlfriend to use. Remington 700, Broughton barrel, AX chasis, premier 5-25 56 with spuhr mount. Shoots a 105 berger hybrid at 3150. Took it up to jordan last Saturday and won it.

Very nice Jeff. Congrats to you for willing the match in Jordan.

Congratulations, Jeff. Great equipment, but the rifleman still has to pull the trigger. You've done well.

Exactly!

That's a mighty fine rife/scope/cartridge combo you're running, but it takes a rifleman to win.

Congrats.

Very cool Jeff! 1-8" twist? Should have my 6mm 1-8" Bartlein end of this year. Gonna stick with the 243 AI.
 
Congrats on the win. I have one of those with a Bartlein 8" twist and one with a rechambered factory barrel. They are fun to shoot and fairly hard on the rockchucks around here.
 
congrats, ya have a website for the chassis, looking for one for my 338 edge build
thanks

It is a 1-8 twist barrel. The chassis is a ACCURACY INTERNATIONAL AX chassis. You may want to look at the 2014 version for your build. I will be getting one for the .308 I am going to be using next year for the matches I shoot. I think they are around $1500. You may be able to get one like mine a little cheaper when they start selling them off to get the newer one???
 
20140924_212431.jpgThanks guys, also picked up a vectronix terrapin that just showed up. Vectronix has quit making this unit so they can focus more on the higher end military stuff. I thought I better get one before you couldn't.
 
Terrapins are nice. I've got readings to 3600yds with mine. Pretty amazing to get a reading on something 2 miles away. The down side is the 5X lens. You'll like it a lot.
 
Lots of gear involved to play the long range steel game.

Nice! What did you do with the McMillan you had on it originally Jeff? I may look at the AX chassis for my next build in either 6.5 or 6mm Creedmoor.
 
I still have the stock, I am going to get the new 2014 ax chassis for my match gun. I will leave this the way it is for coyotes, deer, and antelope.
