picked my new 6br up from baldie yesterday and have to say i am well pleased with it
The action is smooth as silk and the jewel trigger breaks so sweet dont know what the pull weight is but its good
the action is obviously a valkyrie, 5 shot mag, pillar bedded into a aics stock,with a kreiger barrel heavy varmint i think with a 1 in 8 twist so i can use the heavier bullets ,screw cut and a invisible cap fitted
All she needs now is some good mounts and a scope all the reloading gear i need and she will be ready for action
Cant wait till its used to its full potential
A big thanx to Dave for the work and advice and other bits you supplied

That is very nice indeed, I've been thinking about something similar in 6BR and I think you've just made my mind up for me...

Wow, that is an impressive looking rifle, every picture and report of Dave's work I have seen or read has been nothing but glowing and that new AI stock suits it as well. Have you sorted out a 'scope for it yet?

I was looking at the Vortex 'scopes with DM today at Newark. They were very nice indeed and have some clever touches like a marker to show you how many turns off the bottom you are on elevation, they were very keenly priced as well and the glass seemed well on par with Nightforce. I would be having a serious look if I was on the market for something right now.

You'll have a lot of fun with that and you ought to try the various 105/107 grainers Lapua, Sierra and AMax to see which your rifle prefers.
