ctafoya Report post Posted August 27, 2018 I had to think about that one for a while. I was thinking this started out as a Savage Axis. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zeke-BE Report post Posted August 28, 2018 Sweet gun for sure! Axis built me a nice Creed! Haven't posted much about it yet. But it smooth and shoots nice. Still work on some loads. They are a great company Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FB67 Report post Posted September 14, 2018 Shot out to 500 Yards today on the steel plates at Phoenix Rod and Gun club and couldn't be more pleased. I shot the far left steel plate aim point was the 2 inch red square and was able to put 10 rounds pretty much in a 3 inch group no real wind to contend with. Shooting Hornady 143 ELDx with 51.4 grains of 4831 SC jumping the lands .020 using CCI 250 Primers no pressure signs at all. Really digging the 6.5X284 and the Vortex Razor AMG HD is a great scope super clear and instead of dialing elevation this time I used the recital held over 7 MOA ballistic chart said 6.8 MOA it was nuts on. I cerakoted the gun this last week also and Area 15 was great to work with. This is my first true custom gun and I think I may have caught the bug. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cjl2010 Report post Posted September 14, 2018 Awesome rifle. the more I look at it with the raw steel barrel the more I like that look! Good shooting! What contour is your barrel? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FB67 Report post Posted September 14, 2018 Its a Krieger barrel Remington varmint contour. 1.25 to .830.........I was debating on cerakoting it, had it for about three months without Figure I will be replacing the barrel at about 1400 rounds give or take and can go back to raw if I decided to. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HuntHarder Report post Posted November 2, 2018 What kind of velocity are you getting with this rifle? I am debating building a 6.5 x 284. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
recurveman Report post Posted November 2, 2018 I've got a custom 6.5 X 284. Right now I'm getting 3005 FPS with a Nosler accubond long range 142 grain bullet using 4350 as the powder using a 21" barrel. I ran it up to about 3100 FPS but that is when I started running into pressure issues. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
