Did you bed the action, or just slap it in there?

Slapped that sucker in there slammed it down against the lug, torqued it down and sent it!

@huntnful talked me into a 3-18 Tenmile and I love it. Should have bought two when they were on sale. Here’s a group from a recent range trip. I’m a bit rusty but its def a shooter

Very blessed to take beautiful buck on the first hunt ever with the rifle.

Sure turned out nice. I'm a left too and somehow forgot to comment on your build. Any idea how much it weighs?

Just weighed it. 9 pounds on the dot as pictured with scope cover and empty stock pack.


Weight is without sling or bipod.

Really nice rig! Pretty hard to beat a 7mm RM for all around use. Shoots great too. Congratulations on a beautiful buck.

Thank you! Always been a fan of 7mm in general! I think a lot of what we like is what we grew up with. My dad had a custom 7mm mag he named “Bullbat” I always thought was hat gun was the coolest thing ever. Now that I’ve got this one dialed I’m wanting to start another build - Maybe 7 PRC 7SAUM??

The 284 Win is a good one too.
