My February order finally made it! Both Mountain Rifle patterns - Orange/Black/White with my new to me Beanland .243 with Krieger number 3 I purchased from RDSHOOTER nestled in it and the Medium Tan/Dark Tan/Dark Brown ADL with the 7mm-08 Redneck built me with a Brux number 3 fluted.
Dang Joe those are both really nice - but I'm liking the 7MM-08 a lot!!! How can you not like that one - I call dibbs on that one if/when you get tired of it:)
Thanks Josh, Frank and Eric - looks like I have them both pre-sold before I've ever sent one down range, lol. Frank - Redneck built me a twin to the 7mm-08 in 6mm Rem that I had him bed in that Ti stock you sold me. Going to be tough to pick what to bring to Wyoming!
I think it turned out 23 1/2. Need to measure it - it was a 24" blank as initially was thinking something in the 22's but changed my mind of course and asked Lee to leave it as long as he could.
I could slum either, but neither are Gap camo, they're just camo....
I meant GAP camo pattern - that's what they call it when you order it anyway.
Not to be picking nits, but McM had several three (or more) color camo patterns well before Gap was around, and in fact have 11 standard camo colors now, and will build one in any color combo you care to dream up.

Steelhead and aalf are right. Thankfully McMillan always knows what I mean when I say "gap camo pattern" - you could probably just say "camo, NOT Swirled" and get the same thing.
Really like both rifles but especially the 7/08. And I would expect that most people know GAP Camo specifies the colors, not the pattern. Actually never even heard of people calling it a pattern.
Really like the brown/tan. How does the Brux fit the MR pattern?
Responded to your PM - I think it fits great. Looks great, balances great. I'd definitely do it again. Redneck built me a 700 identical to the 7mm-08, but in 6mm Rem and put it in a Ti takeoff and it's a sweet rig as well.
