I really can't think of one rifle Aaron's built that was not a perfect example of how all custom rifles should be built. Not one surprise when I walked in on Monday morning to pick it up. Action - Defiance Deviant, branded Roberts Precision Rifles. Built in 20 MOA rail, and recoil lug. Barrel - Bartlein 25 inch M24 contour 1:8.5 twist chambered in 6.5 Creemoor Suppressor - AAC Cyclone with a TAB gear Kryptek Mirage cover. (soon to be a Templar N30 6 inch) Stock - McMillan A5 with flush cups all over, atlas rail, and PTG bottom metal. Bipod - Harris Bipod BRM-S and LT706 QD Swivel Mount Combo, bipod spikes are from JEC Customs Sling - Rifles Only FTW. Review of this sling is coming soon. Bolt handle and bolt shroud fluted by "bolt fluter" Scope Mount- Sphur 20 MOA SP-4601 with built in level. Scope - Kahles k624i 6-24x56 w/ MSR k reticle. Built by Aaron Roberts of Roberts Precision Rifles

That's one sexy setup. I am starting to tiptoe into long range shooting; one day I hope to have the use for something like that.
Just to make sure that it is done thoroughly, I go both ways.

Well done, Ryan. You set it up perfectly. Now I've got to see if I can put more points on the board than you with that rifle.

If you shoot a young deer because a neighbor will shoot it, you are that neighbor.

NICE!!!! Congrats DG. Now go knock Garvey down a couple notches Why don't you get off the bench and come do it yourself? Too skeered, or the rifle is too heavy to hold and shoot.

Yes, yes you do need to build another rifle, and you need to get into a different type of rifle shooting. It's only money.
In all seriousness, we have a shooter that was bench rest, came out, shot one of our type matches, loved it, and quit bench rest.

Once you to a 6.5mm, it's hard to go back to other stuff.
Very nice rifle, Ryan!!!

As bad as I want my rifle to love the hybrids it doesnt in favor of the 136ls. To tell you the truth the amaxs performed better than the hybs in my rifle even at 800 and out. What was your dope to 1k?
