I finally got my 6.5 Creedmoor in. My buddy Lonnie that owns Texas Custom Guns in Alvin did the barreled action for me. It is a 700 action, blueprinted, with a Shilen, 26", #7 taper, 1 in 8 barrel. He cerakoated it a very dark grey. I had the AI-AX chassis and the Vortex optic already. I put Badger rings and base on it, along with a Timney flat trigger. I absolutely cannot wait to see what it will do!! I asked that he engrave Psalm 23-4 (one of my daily, go-to verses) by the vent hole. Well, now my buddies have dubbed it the Shadow of Death (or SOD). It took a bit to get it, but it was worth the wait. Man, does this rifle make me smile!! I have no doubt that it'll shoot better than me. This one's going to be fun!!






Thanks!!
Matt

The psycho nut bags have always been there. They just get better press now.

I took it out Christmas Eve morning and it truly shoots better than I me. I'm going to have fun with this one for a long time!!
This was 100 yards with factory Hornady 140gr A-Max.
