I guess one rifle that fits that description would be my Savage 16FLHSS by Fred Moreo. Savage 16FLHSS 24 inch Lothar Walther Barrel (1 in 10 twist), Factory Varmint Contour Trued & Timed Action Sharp Shooter Supply Tactical Bolt Knob Glass Bedded McMillan A-5 Stock Glass Bead Finish Badger Ordnance 20 MOA Scope Base Burris 30mm Signature Zee Rings Leupold M4 Scope with TMR Reticle Trigger Pull Adjusted to 2 lbs 10 oz A five shot 200 yards group (actually the target is upside down, I was zeroed for 100 and checking for bullet drop)

It's my "Beanfield Rifle" but no doubt my Mike Bryant 7mm Remington Magnum qualifies! Gunsmith: Mike Bryant (Bryant Custom) Action: Stiller TAC 300 Caliber: 7mm Remington Magnum (26 inch barrel) Barrel: Rock Creek Fluted Sendero Contour (1 in 9 twist, 5R rifling)with Satin Black Gun Kote to match receiver (Black Oxide). Timney Left Hand Trigger Bottom Metal: Badger Ordnance M4 Mounts: Stiller Base/Burris Medium 30mm Signature Zee Rings Stock: McMillan Remington Hunter, Olive Drab Paint Pillars with Epoxy Bedding Optics: Leupold VX-3 4.5-14x50mm LR (Boone & Crockett reticle) After Mike mounted the scope I tested it with some generic handloads loads at his gunsmith range. One hundred yard three shot group measured 0.161! I was really feeling the pressure, Mike Bryant is a VERY GOOD competitor in benchrest! At 200 yards with my big game load.

About to get my custom Shilen barreled 300 Whisper XP100 back... Holding a right bolt left port Wichita gun to have something kewl built on one day. Nice Wichita! My wife shoots a Wichita left-bolt / left-port 7mm BR for IHMSA. Very interesting action and the Canjar trigger is quite good.

This is the 375 SnipeTac. Built on Stiller Tac408 action(single shot receiver), Kreiger barrel, Terminator T5 brake, Timney CE trigger and McM stock in ACU Spectre. We went with the Razor Gen2 scope on this one due to it having if memory is working, about 7 mils of additional vertical adjustment in it over the S&B. Steve Roe built this one as well. Amazing rifle, the small touches that Steve does that you can't see makes it worth having him build them! His guns are absolute Lasers! Finally got dies delivered just last week so now we can start loading the fireformed rounds into real rounds

I've heard of his rifles but never have shot one. Looks great and appears that it will shoot!! What caliber is the Savage? It's my "Beanfield Rifle" but no doubt my Mike Bryant 7mm Remington Magnum qualifies! Gunsmith: Mike Bryant (Bryant Custom) Action: Stiller TAC 300 Caliber: 7mm Remington Magnum (26 inch barrel) Barrel: Rock Creek Fluted Sendero Contour (1 in 9 twist, 5R rifling)with Satin Black Gun Kote to match receiver (Black Oxide).

D'Oh! I was just looking at my post again and realized I didn't indicate what it's chambered for! You got me! The Savage is a .308 Winchester.

State Arms .50 BMG: • Walther premium barrel. Straight contour and air gauged • 1:15 twist • Match chamber • Pillar bedded • Comp trigger set to 5 ounces • 6 x 24 Weaver V-series, mil-dot. It’ll be replaced with a NightForce NXS 5.5-22x56mm this winter (the Weaver has held-up beautifully. I simply want a bigger objective and different reticle) Tears ragged holes with 750 gr AMAXs and H-50BMG powder. 800 gr Barnes solids are a close second pouring US 869. Purpose built for competition, I hope to enter some 1,000 yard matches in Pennsylvania next year. -Lee www.singleactions.com"Chasing perfection five shots at a time"

How much does it cost every time you pull the trigger?

How much does it cost every time you pull the trigger? Which one? The 50s? Varies. You can buy factory ammo pretty reasonable if you look around for standard military loaded stuff. The specialty bullets like Lee just showed, not so cheap. The 375 ST not as cheap

Those 800 grain 50 BMG projectiles look like missiles.

Nothing exceeds like excess. What a boomer. Lee when you say tears holes, at what yardage? I won't shoot my 338 at less than 300 as I feel it's a waste of money. Predictability at close range is expensive and boring. I'm down into a dollar apiece now but still....
