Looks awesome Ryan! What are the specs on the reamer?

 

[PathFinder]

Watching with great interest! I'm just about to start a build and was seriously considering a 6 SST. Really interested in how the loads turn out and the terminal performance of the nose ringed DTACs.

That’s 1mm away from being the perfect gun!

Can’t wait to hear more about this one! What’s the “improved” do to the 6 Saum? Shoulder angle?

What’s the weight? That would be the perfect antelope rig.

What scope are you planning on using with the 6UM right now?

Making progress! Looks like no neck turning is necessary? How many steps down sizing from 6.5?

It’ll be perfect for those “antelope” were killing in a few weeks.

Just one step.

The fireforming loads shot over 3200. She’s going to scream!
