Needs a smoother bolt but that's a minor detail, fantastic job!

What's the performance like, and what pressures are you running at, how many shots per fill?

Details man, we need details! Cordially ;)

Looks nice! I think you could definitely pull off a Walther WA2000 look with that bullpup configuration...

All of your builds are awsome :shock: :D
Nice job, how about a video with the damage?

What kind of machinery do you have access to? Lathes, CNC, stuff like that?

That doesn't look like anything is machined actually, all of that is possible with fairly common tools.

The words that come to my mind are anti material rifle. Looks like trouble. Good work (assuming that it performs as good as it looks).

Looks more like a compact sniper rifle, AMRs tend to be much bigger in terms of overal dimensions and calibre...

Thanks for clarifying. I guess without a visual size comparison it looks bigger than it really is. I'm an eyeballer. I still say it looks pretty dangerous. I want to see damage pics.
