If you could "build" your "do all" lower 48 hunting rifle......

[gtriple]

I’ve been considering reducing my number of rifles to just 1 bolt action and 1 ULUL AR15. That’s a hard decision, but if I didn’t have so much invested in all of them and had to do it all over again…

6CM (maybe 6CM +P)
Defiance Ti X or new Raven Tikka action
16” PVA 0.68” taperless barrel
Triggertech diamond
Nightforce NX6 2-12 F1 MIL or new Rokscope
Nightforce UL rings
Airlock ZG 6mm
MTN Gear Chassis
MDT 3rd polymer mag

 

[270-300]

As a lifelong rugged wyoming hunter I think i could kill any animal in north america with just about any decent centerfire rifle made in the last 100 years. Scoped or iron sights.

Sako Carbonlight 243. 1:10
SB Exos 3-21X50 or Polar T96 4-16X56
SilencerCo Omega 300 gen1
I thought about putting the 20" 1:8 Tikka virgin takeoff on it. But it shoots exceptionally well. So well that I know the next barrel won't shoot this well. Of all my rifles, this is my one & done.

Sorry this is factory, not a build like the OP asked. Technically you could build this rifle....

Dang man, with your LOP what height rings would you have to run with a super negative comb stock like the RS?

Medium. I am 6'6" and not a string bean

Must be the size of my head, lol. I’m 6’4” and need a longer LOP when prone. I have a hard time with these negative comb stocks prone, even with high rings.

Tikka with dovetail rings? If so, throw a rail on it

I mainly made this post to help my indecisive self come up with my next rifle build.

Nah, Tikka factory rail (CTR), McMillan Mountain Tracker LR, Hawkins LW highs. I think a 20minute rail and the Hawkins (highs) can be made to work at the 13.5 LOP with this stock and the NF 4x14x50 F1 combo.

I’d really like to add spacers for a 14” LOP so that I can get my trigger hand positioned right for recoil control but I feel like I’d totally lose my eye box when cheek climbing the ramp.

Add the spacers and see what happens

I already know, lol. Stock fit is such “fuckery”, thank you for your responses.

This negative comb stuff is something I’m skeptical of for dudes our size. As a hunter, I just want a clear sight picture on demand.

Whether or not it plays as big a factor for guys our size, I will tell you that I like the grip and trigger reach.
