You have a very lovely house.

And a very lovely rifle.

I'm very jealous.

^^^Thanks for the compliments.

That is one darn fine looking stick!

GAP sure does make some accurate and pretty rifles.

Enjoy, and tell us how she shoots.

 

[futureranger]

that is one pretty rifle, let us know how it shoots, what ammo do you plan on feeding it?

^^^Federal Gold Match 175gr only

If you can afford the house, the rifle is easy! I'm so jealous. Weren't you tempted to get a caliber that is...............interesting? And are you getting a can?

 

[alpha6164]

Well this is my first precision rifle so i wanted to go with the most common sniping round. Also the ammo is very reasonable compared to a 300wm or .338 etc etc. I am going to try the Badger brake which is supposed to be very good. But knowing myself i know i am gonna end up with a can

Nice rifle, and don't let anyone give you any crap about going with a .308 either. My SSG 69 loves 175gr Matchkings, although I hand load to save money.

You will also love your Nightforce, I have a 3.5-15X50 mounted on the SSG and it's been great. I wish mine had the zero stop, but it doesn't so I have to be mindful of that.

How much did that set ya back?

 

[OOOXOOO]

That is one sexy beast. That is very near the setup I am saving for as I type. Please post a range report with pictures.

My buddy has a similar rifle from GA and we shot it at a match this weekend at 300 yards. My group was 4 inches with the flyers, and 3 inches without.
I scored a 195 out of 200 with 15 10's and 7 X's. He uses 169 grain Federal Gold Metal so give it a try. I love that rifle and I'll be selling some of my gear to get one. We were shooting prone, so I'm betting that off a bench the groups could have been smaller.

Good luck and shoot safe.
