I see a barreled action, bolt handle, and a scope, but where is the stock????   Awesome setup. Cain't wait to hear the range report.

Very sweet rig. Can’t wait to hear range report.

That looks like an awesome rig!
I'll bet it shoots - my Shaen built 6.5 PRC is smoking bugholes these days.

What’s it weigh before scope? I’m about to do something similar It weighs 8lbs exactly, as pictured. So knock 20oz off that for the scope. Handling is perfect, with a little weight forward for stability. Balance point is halfway between the front action screw and recoil lug.... Break in and range report will be coming this weekend but I won't be able to stretch it out until I get back down to the farm in about a month. X-VERMINATOR

My target weight is 7 pounds but I’ll use a model seven action, an edge fill stock and a lighter scope so my weight should be achievable I bet yours is an absolutely hammer and easy to shoot. Love it

Cartridge consolidation is definitely a current event around here but I'm not sure I could give up this rifle. I've owned the receiver for about 20 yrs, I think. It has a high body count including my daughters biggest buck. Just revitalizing it a bit, so don't hold your breath pal! A new 7 twist .22 Creed from Shaen is due soon. If it can't hold 1/2 MOA I'll give you a call! I know how you hate accurate rifles..... X-VERMINATOR
