Not bad...how do you think it would fare against an Accuracy International..Those are some serious sniper rigs!!!

Garminator, this is a deer rifle!

I be the first to question the need for a 1000 yard deer rifle. I think the rifle you have built is wonderful, and wonderful for the purpose of target shooting but not deer hunting.

I have been shooting Highpower XC, and Long range competition for years.

Highpower XC is a series of matches from 200 yards standing to 600 yards prone while the long range is a 1000 yard prone match.

I see you have a 6x284....The 6.5X284 was really developed and used quite extensivley by the long range crowd these days in target competition.

Shooting paper and shooting a game animal are two very different things and although I have shot 1000's of rounds at long ranges in competition my personal limits on a game animal is 400 yards.

I am not trying to sound Holier than thou in this, but I urge you not to shoot at deer or any game animal at those distances.

Your muzzle crown. It looks like it is recessed about 10 degrees or so.

My 50 BMG can outshoot this gun at 800 + yards. 2" groups at 900 yards using AR-50 with 750 Gr. Hornady A-Max reloads.

Barrel is larger than the action screw in. Recessed.

Yes, the muzzle is recessed with a series of 4 steps or actually a crown within a crown. This is more cosmetic than anything else as my trade mark on big barrels like this is usually a "triple crown"...

Yes again, the barrel is larger than what the receiver is and as such, I left the recoil lug off and the shoulder of the barrel itself acts as the recoil lug with the minimal recoil generated by the cartridge....

Well, doggone I have not seen a 6mm-284 before. Don't have any tables that go out to 1k either. What kind of energy does it have at 1000?

Off the top of my head, I do not remember what the foot pounds of energy is at 1,000 yards but I do know that the Hornady 105 gr. A-MAX will perform on deer at that distance as I have personally made one-shot kills at that distance and beyond as well as having witnessed others making kills at 1,000+ yards using the same bullet....

nice gun!!! not trying to be a dick but whats the thrill in taking a deer @ 3000 feet???? seems like it would be kind of like going tothe movies...and the theater only has little 2 inch movie screen and no sound and you gotta sit in the back row....i dont get it
