What do you run? What WOULD you run, if building one in 2016?


.340 Weatherby with custom short throat (I think this is available, but I'm not 100% sure).

Bartlein or Schneider 1/9", varmint taper. I know you prefer Pac-Nor, but this is what I would do.

Holland radial brake

McMillan A-3 stock (fiberglass). One front stud for the bipod. A rear flush cup, maybe a front flush cup. Latigo sling set up to fit.

Standard (Wyatt's extended) box magazine with hinged floor plate. The .340 should feed fine in a LA Rem 700, which would all but eliminate the need for a detachable mag box (I don't think the 300 WM boxes work well with Weatherby cartridges because of the shoulder position/geometry. Again, not sure about that.)

Nightforce ATACR 5-25 F1 scope

About 14 lbs
