I've been wanting to build a 22Creed ever since I heard about them. This will be my first build on something other than a Rem700. I was always intrigued with the Bighorn actions and when the Origin came out it was a no brainer for me. Planning on 75ELDMs going 3500... may try Barnes 77LRX in the future too. Bighorn Origin Bartlein #3 1-7.7 finished at 24” Manners EH2 Elite Tommy Bahama TriggerTech Special PTG M5 flush DBM ZEISS V4 4-16X44 Zeiss Precision Ultralight Low rings OD Green Cerakote

I dig it! The 22 Creedmoor is about the only itch I need to scratch in the future. Barrel contour looks more like a 2B but likely just phantasm on my part.

Can't wait to hear how it shoots for you. Me too! I already had load development ready to roll, just seated them long. Going to measure lands and reseat accordingly. Hoping this weekend some lead will fly!

Very nice. How may grooves?
I'm thinkin' I'll be going with a 3-groove...
It's you and the bullet, and all the rest is secondary.

Ping pong balls for the win. Once you've wrestled everything else in life is easy. Dan Gable I keep my circle small, I’d rather have 4 quarters than 100 pennies.

I'm not much of a fan of purple but I always thought that rifle looked slick as snot! What projectile did you use on that deer?

75 elds, don’t penetrate for shiit, but they kill alright. Wanna give the 75 swift sirocco a whirl

Really a nice looking rifle - congrats!
Also - once you have a chance to try that stock interested to know how you like it. Sure like the lines of the EH2, need to try one out.

The EH2 is my favorite stock. Top - 6.5CM Middle - 22CM Bottom - 300RUM (replacing the Greyboe Terrain with an EH2 that is already on order)
