Phlyodog...sir, um....What exactly do you do for a living? Or is that not for me to know?

A common response on this thread and other like threads is "how does it shoot"?

I really don't care what a rifle looks like, I just want to know how it shoots.

I think it should be mandatory to post a image of a 300, 500 and 600 yard paper target for each rifle image. Say 10 shots at each distance.

Here's mine for all 3 distances.

Well I dont personaly own a gun that can go to 300, 400, 500 or at least with any acuracy. So nothing wrong w/ posting pics of your precision rifle if it But i guess I need to pos only is shot to 100yrds. Some of us are just starting out. But to make myself feel better I may have to post up a pic of my .22Mag

100% AGREED! I also agree with the tax write off statement too....
Great looking setups!

Very cool Phlyodog, that would have to be a very rewarding and yet nerve racking ordeal. Cool shooting sticks and I'm glad you're watching over us sir!

How does it shoot? How does it shoot from a sitting position or is it a prone only rifle? It looks like it might be kind of heavy...?

So nothing wrong w/ posting pics of your precision rifle if it But i guess I need to pos only is shot to 100yrds. Some of us are just starting out. But to make myself feel better I may have to post up a pic of my .22Mag

Believe it or not sir, even an iron sighted AR is capable of excellent accuracy out to 500 yards. As is the M1 and M1A type rifle and many other inexpensive mil-surp rifles.

It is called the "riflemans quarter mile". It is a standard of accuracy that many aspire to.

To answer the questions:

I built it, but haven't had chance to shoot it yet. :-(
As heavy as it is, I would guess that it won't kick any more than my Remington Sendero .300 win mag.
I bought some official Lapua ammo for it, and some official Lapua brass, and will be reloading it when I get all the stuff.

The detachable box mag came with the rifle.

This setup does have some weight to it, so I will likely shoot it from prone or bench mostly, but do have the option with the sling to attempt the other positions.

someday ill get a pic of my 260 as it currently sits and post up

I would like to see the pics. When are we going to shoot together? Maybe a prone match in September? Think about it.

Well I do have an AR, But I have it set up for Run-n-Gun. But currently looking to building a AR for target shooting

I think a get together would be alot of fun. I know I wouldnt be able to compete with you guys, But would be worth maybe learning something new
