Here is a shot of my new .223 1000 yard prairie dog gun. Yes that's right a 1000 yard .223!!!

It started life as a Savage M10 in .223 and was stripped and rebuild soon after I got it.

I added a 26" 1-8 twist Shilen Stainless Select Match barrel that has been threaded for my suppressor.
A two pound Sharp Shooter Supply Competition Trigger and a Stainless Tactical Bolt Handle.
A 1/4" Callahan Stainless Recoil Lug.
A Bell & Carson stock fully inletted. (A McMillan A-5 is in the works for a replacement)
Steel trigger guard.
Harris Benchrest Swivel Bipod with Pod Lock.
Eagle Butt Stock Pack.
EGW one piece tactical scope mount.
Badger 30mm Tactical rings.
US Optics SN3 T-PAL 3.2-17X44 scope.
Burris bubble level.

I am currently using 60gr Hornady VMAX bullets but I am going to work up some JLK 80gr VLD bullets for those hard to reach dog towns.



Thank you, Phessor cool.gif

Very Nice. Looks like you've probably got a real tack driver there.

1000yds though?

Nice rig Phessor! I even put it as the background for my computer for a while! I'm jealous. We'd love to see some pics of PDs taken with this monster. By the way, what's the stat on the mcmillan A-5?
