We didn't do any engraving. We pondered the idea, but most of the guys didn't want anything on the floor plate. I plan to include some goodies in the box, as well as a certificate signifying the exclusive.
I enjoy handguns and I really like shotguns,...but I love rifles!

What kind of trigger does the MRC offer. Do they offer Custom LOP? The trigger is the same design as the older Winchester Model 70. It's an open trigger -- fully adjustable. Let me check with MRC on the LOP.

Guys,
Lock is going to start calling about deposits in a few minutes. I've printed the emails and created a spreadsheet.
I'll let everyone know whats left this afternoon or tonight.
Thanks for the response and support!

It would add value, like "Dale Earnhardt" on the Remmie stocks.
Looking forward to seeing these get the dog snot run out of them. Really curious to see crossover in load development.
And glad I hoarded 260 brass....

Put me down for a right hand model! Will be for our first grandkid who was born last week!! Of course it will need to be thoroughly tested before he can take possession!
Email sent to you Derrik - thanks for putting this together.
(Hope he is right handed)

Their 260 reamer is good to go. Mine is a couple of years old, but jeffbird has a newer 260. You shouldn't have any problem reaching the lands with any and all high BC bullets. The mag box in these rifles is quite generous. That's another appeal of the rifle... Using a Stoney Point/Hornady comparator with an inner diameter of 0.253", base of the shell to ogive contact with the lands is 2.270". The mag box is 3.125", so the magazine can accommodate 0.855" maximum length of nose in front of the ogive to still to able to load into the magazine. This is based off of measurements on Barnes 100 grain TTSX.

Sounds like an awesome rifle, I'm not looking for a .260 but when you make .243, 6mm CM or BR I'm in.

(Hope he is right handed) That made me laugh. And if he isn't right handed, well, darn the luck, you'll just have to keep it!
Gunnery, gunnery, gunnery. Hit the target, all else is twaddle!
