I've got a dang nice foundation for one. Kelbly's Prometheus .532" bolt face. The action, recoil lug, and 20 MOA Pic rail are machined from the same bar of steel. 75° bolt throw.

An action for life! Rem 700 footprint, makes stocks no so difficult and triggers no problem.

Not spoken for...

75 or 90 bolt throw?


Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure, than to take rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, b/c they know not victory nor defeat"- #26 TR

It's never for sale. It's for someone to say they want a rifle built out of it.

I'm thinking of a new lightweight 7mm-08 or 6.5 Creedmoor for a lefthanded daughter. Bolt face too big?

bang

Is Google broke down again?

This is a .532" bolt face. The 08's and the Creedmoors are .473" bolt face.

I've got actions for that application as well.

I don't know what bullet you are thinking but take that same bullet weight and make it a 300wsm eek2 Bad medicine on anything that would come in contact with it...I ran a 155 Lapua Scenar in mine, right in the 3100 neighborhood and nothing survives it....mine is 24" and running 3260. Oh and it fits in a Hawkins detachable hunter mag.

I’m a rather large fan of JGs 7-08 with ELDX. I just killed an Eland with it. Pics are in the photo section.
