Default AO long range rifle build!

Okay guys, this thread is a continuation of the original Mauser action thread that Obsessed1 donated.

This rifle is being put together for new and junior shooters to use at our range in Ft. McMurray where we have ranges out to 1,000 meters
Anybody who wishes to help out with other parts of the build or even powder and bullets , etc, just jump in !

1:The assembly labor is graciously being donated and performed by fps plus

2:The action is from a '98 Parker Hale Safari .

3:Barrel is a Benchmark 30" in 6mmBR donated by Rugerfan
I originally was going to doo it with a spare 308 barrel but Rugerfan wanted to help out with it as well and who can argue with a Benchmark barrel donation!

4: a 20 MOA rail will be donated by Dick284 and myself.

5: Stock to be determined, but I believe I have an extra

6: brass for the 6mmBR is from my stash
That is what I have so far, the build will start in the new year, and will give us something to look forward to inn the Spring!!
