DF: The barreled action was put together by Norbert Costa from Boise who is a top precision smith and would shoot Reelman into a rat hole at 1000 using that rifle.
Chambering is 6.5 Creed. Short 700 action, Benchmark 8 twist tube,fluted/stainless..
Sunny Hill alloy bottom metal. Timmy trigger.
Echols Shrike bedded by Alex Sitman of Master Gunstocks who does a lot of match rifle bedding. Very good, meticulous guy.
BTW function s flawless and yes it shoots. Far better than any M70Classic I ever bumped into. I used to call the Classic a "project in a box".
If the Rem 700 were such a POS I doubt Darcy would waste his time making a top end stock for it. Darcy does not put lipstick on pigs.
