Oh I have, yea that was bad, but there wasn't a thread about it reminding me every day.Originally posted by jettech17 View PostYou should have bought a can first like me. This wait would be a breeze
heck I would actually forget about it for pretty long stretches. And I have another one on order that will be dedicated to this rifle. But I'm not as antsy to get it as I am this rifle. But this is my first true custom build, and knowing how good APR is I know it will be amazing.

I absolutely agree. I know some good gun builders that will tell you straight up it'll take a year.Originally posted by SIXpointFIVE View Post
3-4 months on a full custom build is crazy fast. Especially since they're at the mercy of the suppliers of the components being used.Comment

Just a PSA for you guys taking delivery of these rifles.........they do have a mechanical ejector to work around. If you are used to a standard push feed set up you may find a surprise when it comes to using a bore guide or Hornady OAL tool
Basically you will find both of them trapped in the action by the ejector if you're not careful. On the Hornady tool, you'll need to remove the modified case from the tool before withdrawing it from the action. Easy enough, just push it back through the load port and take it off. On the bore guides(and you should do this anyway) stay away from the "universal" style guides. Get a Possum hollow or Lucas style design like pictured below and you'll have no issues to worry about. Just giving you a head's up!

Mike Lucas always asks what the action pattern (diameter) and rod size are when he builds a bore guide, What should I tell him on my .22 Creed, Rem 700?

Getting a 6.5 prc I wasnt sure. Called possum hollow and bought one straight from them over the phone. #66 for those shopping onlineComment

Are you sure it is the #66?Originally posted by jettech17 View Post
Using their chart:
#66 is for "Sako 75 & 85 Savage M25", "204 Ruger, 221, 222, 223,222rem mag"
Robert can you confirm which is correct for 6.5 PRC?
#44 is listed as - "Remingon (all Centerfire Bolt)", "6.5-284, 6-284"
I'm assuming they misspelled Remington.Comment
