Christmas came early on Thursday with the first of the Big Horn Actions arriving from the US. These actions are outstanding quality and offer some unique features not found on other Rem 700 footprint actions. Floating/interchangeable bolthead allows for multiple calibre options, controlled round feed and mechanical ejector are just a few of the key features. Give us a call if your interested in a build on one of these actions as we only have limited numbers as they are flying off the shelf in the US.

Custom Lone Peak Titanium- Carbon fibre 300 Win Mag.
This rifle is built on a Lone Peak Fuzion Ti action with a melonite coated spiral fluted bolt with a Jewell HVR trigger. The action is fitted to a Hardy Engineering Carbon Wrap, Rem Varmint profile barrel and sits is a Kiwi Composite carbon fibre stock.
A Terminator T3 break was fitted to reduce felt recoil and an Accurate Mag CIP length DBM was inletted to enable the use of VLD projectiles in a detachable magazine. All metal work was finished in the new Cerakote Elite Midnight. This finish is fantastic, super smooth and harder wearing than any other cerakote.
A set of Warne Mountain tech rings were chosen to round out the lightweight build at 2.3kg. Fitting the Swarskoski Z6 scope raised the total rifle build weight to 3.4kg.

This build used a Weatherby Mark V action as a base. The boltface was opened out to fit the 338 Norma Mag case and was fitted to 26" Lilja No.4 profile fluted barrel. A TGPR custom break was used to tame the light rifle which reduced recoil to approximately that of a .243 Win.
A Bell and Carlson stock was modified and bedded to ensure a perfect stress free fit.
The complete rifle with scope weighed 3.8kg.
Proof testing the rifle showed consistent 3 round groups between 1/4 and 1/2 MOA.

R***r 77 Mk11 .243 Win, Semi Custom
A stunning blend of steel and wood and a change to our tactical builds. The action and bolt were lapped and the reciever face was cut true to the raceway and the trigger was worked. A Hardy Engineering spiral fluted barrel with a 8/1 twist with a T3 muzzle break fitted prior to the metal work being bead-blasted.
The barrel channel on the stock was opened to fit the new profile, bedding and stainless steel pillars fitted with a few blemishes removed to make it look as good as when Ken Davis made the stock.
