VERY NICE 308 above, one you should def enjoy and looks like a one holer!
Grasshopper - you keep building, and you keep getting CLOSER to the one you will keep. Try a 6.5 Creedmoore, 260, or 6.5x47 next time, in a lighter yet #4 or Light Palma, 22-22.5" - fluted if you want the cool factor. Lighter recoil will be enjoyed when you do. That said, I prolly ....NEED...a 308 like most folks should....that blueprint above is one I could be very pleased with as I assume it will bughole.
Look forward to pics of scoped and range results! Congrats! Enjoy.

THAT, my Campfire friend, is SWEET!!!
The spiral fluted bolt and barrel look wicked together.
Not being familiar with SAC, do they ONLY do short action builds? Or could he do something similar in a magnum?

Mark will build anything you want - that is just the name of his buisness. Check out his website - he has alot of pictures of the rifles he has built. www.shortactioncustoms.com

Yep. Other than my preference for straight flutes, I wouldn't mind having one just like it.

Finally got it on the range today to shoot a little bit. Due to rain only got to run 25 rounds through it @ 100 yds, but it looks like a keeper!! I had some very tight 3 shot groups & then shot this final 5 shot group before the heavy rains hit - happy happy!!
