The Transformation

[xphunter]

On Memorial Day weekend my 7mm LRM looked like this:

After that I took off the 7 LRM barrel and put on the 7WSM barrel. It turned in my best 10 shot group at a grand as well with a 8 inch group.

Then this afternoon, I took of the bench stock and put on the McRee.
Took off the 7WSM barrel and put on the 7LRM barrel.
Took of the original Gunwerks brake and put on a Holland Radial Brake.
The Sightron S-III 8-32 came off and on went a FFP Leupold 6.5-20 with Holland's all MOA ART Reticle.



I thought about chopping the barrel down, but I still have not done the load development with Retumbo yet.
I will take the added MV advantage for this comp for sure.
Also added a sling swivel stud in the back on the left side, so I can sling it up.
Now the 7 LRM is ready for WTRC Wyoming Tactical Rifle Championship

Here is a 100 yard group off of a bi-pod from this morning.
This sucker really torques

That's a world away from my contender! What's she weigh?
I can't claim to know anything about the bolt pistols, but she looks awesome man. Good shooting.

 

[xphunter]

I don't know. I have not weighed it yet.
It is a good question though.
MV is 2895 with a 180 grain Berger Hybrid (Pointed with a Whidden Pointing die).
Will increase your BC around 5%.

Man, that thing is sweet! I notice the wood concealing the magazine. How many rounds does it hold or does it serve another function like added weight?

Very nice.

I've never ever heard of a bolt pistol in my life - thanks for the lesson of the day!

 

[BYJO4]

Really nice and great shooting.

The tactical Blackhawk holster would be considered long by most standards

Makes my stock XP in 7BR look like a mouse gun designed for my pocket!

Are the barrels over 16"?, If so, does that need a stamp?

 

[xphunter]

They are over 16", and no, you do not need a stamp.
Rifles have a limit on how short barrels can be but handguns do not have a limit on how short or how long they can be.
Some states have limits on length or cartridge/caliber for hunting though.

Some pics of confirming drops this past Thursday.
Here is 400 yards. The 7 LRM pretty much wiped out the dot I had painted for a aiming point. This was in the afternoon (second time confirming drops).
The smaller hit at 11:30 is from Darrell's AR-15. Darrell was my partner for the WTRC this past weekend:

Then here is at 1000 yards. We were confirming drops in the morning in this pic.
These are the last four shots at 1K:



Then we went back out and shot out to 1K again.
Had some small tweeking to do, but it was shooting very good.
