I built a 6.5 CM last week for my hunting buddy. I used a Hart #3 SS Match Barrel 1&8 twist , PTG Reamer with floating bushing , PTG Lug, SS 700 Short Action, Timmney Trigger and HS Precision Stock . Skim bedded the stock and floated the barrel first group with Berger 140 VLD Hunting and IMR 4064 was touching under 1/2 INCH. Needles to say he is happy. Scope 3.5x10 Leupold. Burris Steel Bases and Warnes QD Rings ![[Linked Image]](https://s20.postimg.org/aqwin91nx/6.5_cm4.jpg)

Looks like a sweet rig. Anyone that wouldn't like it is very picky, or just don't like the creedmoor.

I bead Blasted the Action, Bolt Handle, and Barrel after completing the build. Number 80 grit Glass Beads. I also cut barrel to 23 inch's and cut a recessed target crown.
