About a year I started sourcing parts for a 6BR build. Not too far into the project I had a change of heart and I decided to go .308.

With the input and help of some members here (looking at you Al Nyhus) here is where it ended up.

Kelbly Atlas Tactical
Bartlein 11.25 TW Rem Varmint contour
Grayboe Renegade w/ AICS bottom metal
Triggertech Special
Cerekote FDE

I need to switch the trigger for a black model as when it came in I just tossed it in the box of parts and didn't look at it.

Overall...It turned out great, I'm well pleased with it and Mike was a pleasure to work with. Now I have to work on getting it scoped and to the range.

Nice rifle

Which 308 chamber did you have Mike cut? I know he lists several.

I told Mike what I wanted and this is the email he sent me.



"Gary, I have a reamer that will work very well. I think it has a .342” neck diameter and .100” freebore length. I used it in the last .308 I built and it shot very well"

Well, that's a mighty handsome package. I'll bet it shoots as good as it looks.

Given the parts list and the gunsmith I'll also bet it shoots great.

I'm thinking it will shoot as good as it looks.

Get it scoped up and ready to go hunting.

Take care.

Nice. What does it weigh?

Always admired his work. Grats on the new build.

Mike is a great smith!

Have to get back to ya on that. Haven't had a chance to weigh it yet.

Looks great. By coincidence, I talked with Mike just today.

Good shootin' -Al

Second that.

308's are much fun.

Congrats on the new toy, Gary !

Thanks pal.
