Built a lefthanded 6.5 Creedmoor for my daughter and it was super easy to like. Used a Hawk Hill #2 on it and it shoots fantastic. So it motivated me to build something close.

Had Shooter71 on here spin this up using my 6.5x47 Reamer. Had a really good smith use that reamer to build a super accurate heavy 6.5x47. Have a bunch of ammo that I have been using in that rig and grabbed a few to try in this one. It appears that the ammo will be interchangeable between both rigs.

Shaen trued this one up, bushed the pin, threaded the TBAC adapter for my UL7 and added the oversize bolt knob for me. The wood stock is just being used till the carbon ambush McMillan shows up. Anyway, rifle pic and the 147 ELD group from first range trip. Barrel is 19" and velocity is 2600 fps. Must say recoil with the suppressor could be called very light lol.

That’s nice! I’m actually thinking about a lightweight 6.5x47.

Very nice!

I've got a rifle headed his way right now, looking forward to the finished product.

Shaen does great work.
Give him decent parts and let him work his magic, and it'll shoot lights out has been my experience.
Can't wait to see that in the new stock.

Very nicely done!!

Like it. Seeking to get a LH 6 Creed of some type myself. Just thinking as soon as I pony up $3000 worth of stuff......Ruger will release a limited run of LH Predators. And shoot nearly as well

Really like that rig, walnut and stainless looks very sharp.

Nicely done, the x47L is one on my favorite rounds. I have a Brux #3 chambered in 6.5x47 on a Tikka action/McMillan stock that I shoot alot, I also have a Defiance action with a Brux #3 with the 6.5x47 chamber, this one rides in a Manners. The 6.5x47 is a really great round for my needs.
