Thread: Custom build ideas

I use a Browning Mountain Ti with currently a Swarovski Z8i 1.7-13.3x42 in 7 mm WSM.
Just over 6.5 lb good to go.
140 gr Nosler AccuBond home load doing 3200 fps almost in the same hole 3 shots at 100 yards.
Used it on the range out to 700 yards out shoots me checking the bullet drop but would not recommend it as a range rifle as the barrel gets rather warm no issue for my hunting.

Issues in the last 9 years.
Damaged crown smashed the muzzle on a rock jumping about on the tops, purchased a re-crowning kit shoots like new again.
Trigger was a bit heavy even when adjusted replaced the trigger return spring with a section of spring from a pen instant 2 lb crisp trigger 8 years ago.
Bolted the rifle to a Nightforce NXS felt like the scope doubled the weight and bulk of the set up.
Soft touch camo stock finish melts if you have Deet on your hands.

Great rifle easy trigger fix no plans to change.
