lancetkenyon Report post Posted September 19, 2016 A 13+# 6.5-.284 must shoot beautifully. How about a little more info on the gun and load? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RHINO Report post Posted September 19, 2016 This rifle was built by a friend of mine. Hes been building for himself for a while, and he just started his own business building custom rifles (precision craft rifles). He took my old winchester model 70 30-06 and turned it into this beast. Im shooting 53 grains of h4831 at 2925fps. It has a razor gen 2 scope on it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kingzero Report post Posted September 21, 2016 Very nice. I know a Sendero contour is about as big as you can put in a Gamescout. How much stock is on either side of the barrel? Im wanting to get one but thinking about going with the Gamewarden cause of the wider front end. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
