Nice rings. Can’t remember now why I decided to change. Shaen bedded a 20 MOA rail on mine, then cut out the section over ejection port.

The cartridge has performed flawlessly on WT for me. I shoot many other cartridges but compare all to the 7mm-08 for WT deer needs. I want to put together a 20” barreled rifle to run suppressed as a main deer setup. I was leaning hard towards a 6.5 PRC but your build setup just flipped me back! Awesome setup and congrats.

The "odds" should make you warm/fuzzy. Hint. ALL of which were expressly geared to 180's. Hint................

I can say a 20.5" LV contour, fluted by Karl K. handles great......blast in the 6.5x47 mild. Look forward to reports. Enjoy your new rifle.

They tend to run .010" shorter in gross length,than a 180 ELD. The 180 Booger Highbird wears a .680 BC,while the 180 ELD is .796. Hint................
