butchlambertNew custom receiver
For somebody looking for an inexpensive stainless receiver.
http://www.benchrest.com/forums/showthread.php?t=28137This is Jerry Stillers new Predator receiver. It will use all Remington receiver stocks, triggers. and bottom metal. The tenon size and threads are the same. They are a complete CNC receiver with the raceways cut on an EDM machine. At the present it is available in short action only, single shot, or repeater. The body is 416 stainless and I believe 4140 bolt material. The initial run is $600, I believe that the future runs will be $650. By the way, it comes in 223, 308, and magnum bolt faces. Other combinations will come as demand requires.

FjoldJerry put it on Benchrest Central over a year ago when he first started the development but we couldn't talk him into a lefty version.

butchlambertI think that the leftys will follow if there is enough demand. Thank goodness they are available now. Develpoment time on a new product sometimes takes a little longer than expected.
