I am building my 9 year old son his first big game rifle -(6.5 creedmoor ) so he will be ready to go chase spring bear when he turns 10 next year- actually got a call this morning from the smith letting me know the metal work was done...
Rem 700 short action
Timney Trigger
Fluted and lighten bolt
Fluted Shilen #2 finished at 23"
B&C Mountain Rifle stock ADL, cut to 13" LOP
Talley Low 1 piece mounts...
Scope - Undecided, but I have an extra 3-9x conquest or may look at a 3-9x cds VX2
Going to work up some reduced 125 grain Partition loads - should be a great rifle for him.
That sounds like a GREAT build right there.
