Beanland Rifle - Can't wait

[tulsanewb]

A couple months ago I put an order in with Jon Beanland to build a 6.5CM, probably still have 5 or 6 months to go before all the parts are in and he finishes it. I am not usually this inpatient, but everything I've seen from him is amazing! This is probably my last purchase for almost 2 years as I am returning to school full time, I couldn't think of anything better!

Anyone here have a Beanland? Pictures would be great, need something to drool over while I wait

I know a couple of guys that do. I won't say names, but they are very happy with Beanland rifles.

I really want a 6.5CM. Best round out there IMO.

Too bad you dont have it already. We'd like to see it.

You will not be disappointed. Jon does very good work, and he is good to work with when planning a build.

Jon built a Creedmoor for me last fall and I couldn't be happier. You will not be disappointed.

I bet you will enjoy it! I just bought a box rifle savage 12 LRP 6.5 CM and a 8-40 f class optic.

Do you load your own 6.5cm?

I had mine throated to shoot the lighter 120's bullets and have only loaded 120nbt's for it so far. I would really like to try the 123 amax but they are hard to find.

Last one Jon Built for me.

Stiller Tac30 A/W, Manners T6A molded desert, Huber 2 stage @ 1.5#, Rem Vmt Kreiger 1/8.5tw with Kampfeld Spiral flutes, throated for 123amax.
Shoots the 123 Amax into the 0.1"'s on a regular basis with 43.8gns of H4350. Ran it out to 1300yds a couple months back with acceptable results for the conditions. At 1700yds, they were falling out of the sky, but that's expected. Need the 140 hybrids for that range.

Here is my 300wm that he built as well. R700 trued/BP'd, Rem Vmt Krieger 1/10, Kampfeld Spirals, Old School Remmy trigger tuned up to 1.75#, McMillan A5a, CDI Bottom Metal. Was hammering a buddy's plate at 840yds enough that he was afraid it might start punching a hole, and we quit... it shoots in the 0.1-0.2" range. If you look about 0.5" just behind the last port, you can barely make out the seam between the muzzle brake and the bbl. It only looks like that, b/c he and I have taken it off a couple of times since he painted it, to check fit on my suppressor. You couldn't see the seam when I picked it up. Jon's work is flawless, period.
