OK here are the photos
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 .

very slick looking rig.
What sort of accuracy have you seen out of it so far?

Re: OK here are the photos
Mr Clancy hasn't let us down again. Great combination of parts their Bushchook which have resulted in a rig I wouldnt mind owning. So if you find out it only shoots .5 MOA instead of .25 MOA I will happily take it off your hands
Great Stuff

Only has 9 shots thru it so far . Running in the barrel . Fire one and clean so have hurriedly sighted in at 250m but not fired a group .
Having to fireform new cases as the once fired Lapua brass that I had from my last rifle won't chamber even after running through a Redding body sizing die . New chamber is much tighter around the casehead than the old one (Tobler chambered) .
