Just received this one from Shane Clancy . Not great photos but was pressed for time .
Stiller Predator with Tac 30 bolthandle and Stiller picatinny rail .
26" Lilja Heavy varmint profile barrel . 1 in 9 inch twist chambered for .243 Ackley Improved with a no - turn 0.276 neck .
All metalwork finished in black duracoat .
Wild Dog SA TA1 stock , bedded by Shane . Very impressive .
Remington 700 bottom metal and magazine .
Jewell HVR trigger with bottom safety set to 8 ounces .
Warne Maxima medium rings .
Leupold VX111 6.5 - 20 x 50 LRT with varmint hunter reticle and Butler Creek covers.
Old model Harris 9 - 13" bipod .
Sighted her in but not blooded yet . Know what to expect though as this is my second rifle in this calibre .
For all you .204 lovers . I have to say that there is absolutely no problem spotting your shots when using 55gn ballistic tips at over 4000 FPS out of this thing . It's all about barrel weight .
Will probably end up shooting the 87gn V Max at around 3350 FPS if I can make it work . Last rifle didn't shoot it that well (under 3/4 MOA though) but it sure did splatter stuff .
