Give one to me then.

It seems the only time I post in this thread it's to show one of the kids guns!

So I have been trying to do something light for my 10 year old who is just getting in to speed steel and ipsc mini rifle. I did look at the S&W15-22 again but I cant get past the fact you cannot get a 15 round mag for them. It's 10 in an acat config and thats it. Not much good for our competitions but I did like the weight..

Ended up making this. It's 1950grams without optic and a bit under 2200 grams with the holosun. That extra 200 grams does feel like quite a bit though.. Still, quite happy. Ended up being about 400 grams lighter than a 15-22 thanks to the light stock and CF handguard. That and the fact I put the barrel in the lathe and removed 200mm off it..

Having the really short barrel does make a difference to the feel of the weight, with the mass back towards the receiver its much easier to hold reload on the move for him.

Nice, seen it before on FB.

My latest 338 Terminator, hope to keep it longer than the last one I made myself......



4.160 Kgs, 9.17 lbs so a little lighter than my last one, might need a bigger brake with 300s at 3K+



Looking forward to getting it up the Range in a wee while

What's the build list?

On mine?

Aero upper/lower
aero parts kit, trigger at 5lb. Will give him a better one but he got to chose nice sight/shitty trigger or the other way around to start
holosun 510c
basic charging handle
CMMG barrel/bolt
I made the barrel nut/hand guard and stock

Yup.

Sounds good.

A cheap nice trigger would a PSA EPA.

Looks real neat Greg,,what make is stock???

So what case is the 338 terminator based on and roughly how many grains powder needed for a 300gr bullet at over 3000fps????

Ken Henderson stock

My 338 Terminator is an improved 338 Lapua magnum improved, uses 108-114 grains depending on powder

Relative velocity is barrel length & make dependent

Yeah but it uses much faster powder, as does my 450 Rigby & soon 505 Gibbs...

There's some nasty rumours out there so I thought I'd set the story straight
Perhaps the nicest rifle I've had, my lousy pics don't come close to doing it justice.
Thanks to Ryan for all the help

Am I the only one on here to note the irony?
