Well it's been a long road for Joel and I but there is some bright light at the end of the tunnel. We put together our last prototype action for testing. We have been working with Robert and Jason over at Alamo rifles on a couple aspects of the action... shout out to them for the chamber/bed job on this build. I would say all of our hard work put into the action and our fire control system which was tweaked/tuned by Greg Tannel has paid off. Actions will be shipping towards end of next month. 6.5x47 LAPUA 20" muller barrel Curtis AXIOM action The stock is new company coming to market soon... (don't ask as they haven't released it yet... ) 140 Berger @ 2770fps with a 20" pipe...

I know who the stocks are from, but I won't spoil it. Going to be a winner, though!

As someone who is just staring out, I live this price point. I wish y'all success. We just had a baby and expecting another in a few months so both time and money are a luxury to me right now. But when they're a little more self sufficient I've been dreaming of a more custom rifle and I think this is the answer I was looking for.
Just a thought, y'all should think about teaming up with someone like Alamo and offer a barreled action set. I don't know of the technical difficulties but as an end user i love the idea of buying a barreled action and doing the easier parts of the customization myself.
