Best looking sock I've seen around here in awhile, The3clipser...
Some very nice rifles above too!
Here are some of our bolt guns:
6.5-300 Weatherby Mag; custom M700, work by Sid Goodling, Hart barrel, HS Varmint stock, Leupold 6.5-20x50 TMR/M1 scope. One of the very few rifles that shoots flat enough to use a 1" tube scope from a 100 yard zero to beyond 1,000 yards.
.22-250 Remington; custom M700, work by P.J.Hart (the elder), Hart barrel, HS Varmint stock, Leupold/Premier custom 6.5-20x40 with fine crosshair and hundred yard dots for my load from 100 to 600 yards.
6.5-284 Norma; custom M700, originally by IBA, re-build by GAP, Bartlein barrel, McMillan A3 stock, NightForce 5.5-22x50 MLR.
.260 Remington; custom M700, work by GAP, Broughton barrel, Manners stock, NightForce 5.5-22x50 MLR.
.308 Winchester; custom M700, my work, ER Shaw barrel, HS Varmint stock, NightForce 5.5-22x50 MLR.
.30-06 Ackley; custom M700, work by Bennett Custom (AL), Shilen barrel, HS sporter stock, Leupold 3.5-10x40 mil dot.
.243 Winchester (Laura's rifle); custom M700, work by GAP, Schneider barrel, HS "LTR" stock, Leupold/Premier 4.5-14x40 Gen II mil dot/M1.
.308 Winchester; more or less stock M700 "LTR", HS "LTR" stock, Leupold/Premier 4.5-14x50 Gen II mil dot/M1.

LOL, seriously...
The E.R. Shaw barrel shoots surprisingly well. It is on one of my rental rifles and after 6,000-7,000 rounds it's going strong. With FGMM 168s, it will shoot 3/8" groups at 100 yards, FGMM 175s into about 1/2".

It's on layaway, sadly. It's a 7.62x39, I'll be letting my girlfriend take it hunting as she's a little gun shy even though she handles a 12 gauge like a boss. From everything I've read these things are usually sub moa out of the box with surplus ammo, can't wait to dig into this one.

My home built .260 in it's natural habitat - at the range.
**Added some weight back to the factory (but slightly cleaned up) accu-trigger and measured it over 10 pulls, came in at 1 pound and 6.75 ounces.
I have one of those. They are awesome guns and shoot the cheap steel cased ammo. My .223 is an older 1/12. Also waiting for a 1/9 cheap enough. They make them in the carbine and Mannlicher stocks, can't decide which I want. Also the American stock I believe.

The 5.56 carbine has a 1:9 twist.
They introduced the 1:9 in late 2013/2014. Guns, including carbines, before then were 1:12.
Its actually a good argument to buy another one, but would need to make sure it wasn't NOS.
I'm in the same position. My 527 American is 1:12
