Today I received my Mcmillian XIT Stock after a 7 month wait. Now I will begin building a spare F TR Rifle with a trued Rem action that I have and the spare barrel from my Pierce Engineering F TR Rifle.

I plan to use the same Bix'n Andy trigger that I have on my current rifle.

The barrel will be  Bartelin 30" HV 1:10.

The idea is to duplicate my Competition Rifle as closely as possible.

Very nice. What bullet head are you using and whats the load ? 600 yard F class I assume. 

I am using Berger 200gr Hybrid. The load is 44.1 grains of Varget. 

In a 30" barrel  , I am getting  2765 FPS

My Competition Rifle is single shot so my COAL is 2.901.

Yes,   F Class at Mid Range (600 yards) but I have a LR  (1,000 yard ) Match coming in June.

That's gonna be a nice rig Iggy.  Congrats.  Who will be spinning the barrel for you?

So roughly what's the cost on that rig?

Bix and Andy - 300

2525 if I've added it correctly without my coffee.  Glass is another topic.  Also, bipod and some of the other stuff that goes with it are additional.  There are other mods that can be done to the stock as well, that is just the base price on the XiT.

@Iggyort in the ballpark?

Tier 1 of course. My former shooting partner and I had our old  F Class Rifle done by them . Tier 1's work is excellent.

The number are in line with a Trued Rem action.

 

Below is the cost of my Custom Build. The McMillan stock was less because at the time Mcmillian was given out Veteran's a discount.  Unfortunately , some entitled idiot ruined it for the rest of us Veterans. 

The pillar bedding and bedding was around $200.

In total,  the complete Pierce F TR  Rifle was $3,055.00.

Pretty rifle but Ouch!  

How many rounds does it take to wear out a 308 f class barrel in your experience? Acceptable accuracy and velocity for the sport in consideration.

I " shot-out " my last  F Class barrel at 2,865 rounds.

Let's be clear about the meaning of shot out.  In F Class competition,  you must hold 1/2 MOA to win a Club Match.  At a National or Regional Match the rifle should be shooting 1/4 MOA. The barrel in question opened up to 1 MOA.

Barrels are a consumable items in F Class Competition.  They can be purchased fairly cheap.
