Nathan Chesney from Hillbilly Custom Rifles finally completed my 7LRM build. I originally wanted a Brux barrel on it but they were pretty far out so I think we ended up going with Hart - it's been awhile and I haven't seen the invoice yet, lol. Oh what I would give for a memory. Built on a Win. model 70 stainless CRF action. Blueprinted, jewell trigger, Wyatts extended mag box, cerakoted the bolt knob, extractor and ring, safety, bolt release and action screws in black, I think the rest is sniper grey, bedded to the McFlame. Should be here Monday or Tuesday. Throwing a nightforce 5.5-22x50 on it and goal is to shoot the 175 ABLR's. Only have 2 pics right now, will supplement later when I get it all set up and the Atlas bipod mounted. It's been agonizing waiting for this one! ![[Linked Image]](http://i1288.photobucket.com/albums/b489/Killertraylor32/Mobile%20Uploads/image001_zps6865138e.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i1288.photobucket.com/albums/b489/Killertraylor32/Mobile%20Uploads/photo1_zpse4d80e9a.jpg)

I like. Maybe my Borden will deliver at some point in the future.

That looks nice, is the action a 300 Wby or STW, as the loading port is opened up? Will be looking to hear how it shoots and how your loads work out. Randy

7LRM= 7 Long Rifle Magnum. It is essentially a 375ruger necked to 7mm.
Great rifle! Don't overlook the 180gr berger hybrids either.

I like that...very interesting looking rifle. Good luck with it! Paint job is funky! 
The 280 Remington is overbore.
The 7 Rem Mag is over bore.

That is one cool looking rifle!
Chronographs, bore scopes and pattern boards have broke a lot of hearts.

You can prolly hear the engine roaring by simply holding it.  Expect the invoice when he's back from his hunts. I like!

Randy It was a 7mm Rem to start with - yes, he had to open up the top a little (and he shaved the stock back and painted it to match) but he said it partly had to do with the longer Wyatt's box. I think the cases were hanging up on ejection. Thanks for all the compliments. I love that McFlame - glad I finally found something to put it on.

Nate builds an awesome rifle. Hell of a long range thumper there. Good luck with it.
