I just finished putting this one together for my buddy. It turned out well and I wanted to share a few pics and some details.

Here are the specs;

6.5 Creedmoor


  • -Remington 700 CM SA
    -Action Scalloped
    -Trued

  • -PTG Bolt
  • -PTG Lug
  • -PTG Lug
  • -Manners T5A Tac Elite Stock w/chassis
  • -Seeking Bipod Rail
  • -X-Caliber Barrel - #5 Contour
    - 1-8 Twist
  • -Schuler Muzzle Brake
  • -NF ATACR 5-25X56 Scope
  • -Seekins 20 MOA Base
  • -Seekins Rings


The barrel, action, bolt and shroud were sent off for nitriding. Its just a clean, clean gun. It shoots decent too.

You'll mess yourself when you first start. The "tiger stripes" are a little worrisome at first, but it comes together pretty fast and starts looking decent

Nice rig! I also have a Creed in the works. Hopefully will be finished up and shipped end of next week. Who makes the rear rest in the first image? I am looking for a well built rear rest.
