Custom Precision Rifle:

I'm building a custom precision rifle chambered in 5.56mm (.223). Here are some of the components being integrated:

  1. Action: Savage M-12 Bolt Action (short), the ejector resembles the Mauser 98
  2. Barrel: M-12 (5.56mm) 1" diameter HEAVY, 26" in length, Button Rifled (1:9 RH) to stabilize yawing bullets up to and including 70+ grains
  3. Optics: Mili-radian reticle, range estimation, 4-24X40
  4. Stock: CHOATE ("ultimate-sniper") carbon fiber, pistol grip, adjustable cheek-piece and butt-pad, mono-pod adjustment beneath butt of stock, serrated fore-stock with contoured grip, angled nose-piece with sling swivel stud, bi-pod attachment and accessory rails.
  5. Trigger: since Savage's (non-accutrigger) triggers tend to be "creepers" I'm installing a Rifle-Basix target and sniper trigger assembly. While the accutrigger is amazing, it's not what I'm looking to put on this rifle.
