6.5 Beanmore No_2 in Australia

[Turtle566]

Hi all, just a short message to let you all know about my 6.5 Beanmore, which I'm not half excited about.
It's a converted Sako L579 with a TSE Barrel, finished length is 610mm(24").
The Scope is a Nightforce SHV 4-14x56 with a S2 reticule, which l was able to purchase second hand, l have some 85grain Hammer Hunters for it to digest, this is the rifle that got the 6.5 Beanmore listed on the Australian Firearms Register, by accident and without Fordy, Alex(gunsmith) and Mr Bean, and a few others, would not exist.
So many thanks to all those involved especially the "Hammer Gang".
Sidenote, this is my first custom rifle/chambering and am so looking forward to shooting it,
Was going to Post some photos, but am unsure how too at this stage.

Regards
Graham

Hi gltaylor, l will post results and photos now that I have learnt how to properly (l think)
Our range has been closed till further notice at the moment, hopefully l've found a property fairly close to here that l can shoot on with a private range,
(& some deer).

Range deer are test material!
