The big brown truck finally delivered my McMillan today so that I could give the custom a new home. It still has to be bedded and then the load developement starts. Here are the details. Remington 700 Action, Blueprinted, Lugs Lapped and bolt face squared. Douglas #5 Fluted barrel @ 24�, 1-9 twist, chambered in 280 Remington by Mickey Coleman McMillan New Remington Varmit 33% OD, 33% Black, 33% Light Tan, 1% Invisible UFO Mojo glitter. Pre lawsuit Factory trigger set at a crisp 2.5# Mil Spec OD Cerakote Ti Fluted bolt and 2.5 bolt knob by Kampfeld Talley Lightweights Swarovski AV 6-18X50mm TDS Plex Scope The pics aren't the greatest but I broke my finger on Saturday so my normally bad picture taking skills are worse than normal. The pics make the stock look lighter colored than it really is. ![[Linked Image]](http://connerknives.hypermart.net/custom3.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://connerknives.hypermart.net/custom2.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://connerknives.hypermart.net/custom4.jpg)

Loose that big azz ugly scope and the Kenworth shifter knob you stuck on the bolt handle and that would be a pretty good looking rifle  No BS, that's a great rig and a good choice of cartridge for your panhandle bucks.

It weighs 9.0 Lbs just at it sits. I knew it wouldn't be a light weight when I was planning it. DT

That weight isn't too bad for what it is. I thought it would be heavier. Nice looking setup. I bet its a real shooter. What bullets are you planning on running?
