My ground - up build

[F.N.]

18 inch LW barrel, Yankee Hill Upper, muzzle device and forearm, Spikes tactical "Punisher" lower with Geissele 3 gun trigger on KNS pins, MAGPUL and ERGO, Fixed 6x IOR in an AD mount. Yes the Upper does say 6.8 SPC, 'cause that is all Midway had at the time I ordered. The barreled action is my 29 inch Kreiger 6.5x55 Tikka, I had built off a 30-06, since Tikka/Beretta won't import that caliber in their Super Varmint model and I am a dyed-in-the-wool 6.5 wacko.

Nice blaster. The Swede is another great cartridge. 6.5mm has finally caught the US by storm.
