It is a DPMS/Panther arms chambered for 6.5mm Creedmoor. It is sitting in the UPS operation in Oklahoma City waiting for Monday to happen so they can deliver it to a local dealer. Yeah local... 60 mile round trip.
I found Midsouth Shooters Supply on the net and their Hornady factory loads were the lowest prices I could find so I got some of both bullet weights Hornady offers, 120 and 140 grain.
I will set up to roll my own.
I am converging on an optics decision but can use scopes I already have while I await delivery of whatever I decide on. If you choose carefully you can get a scope for a lot less $ than the equivalent performance will cost you in WELL RECOGNIZED brands.
One example is Tasco, a name that instantly brings to mind super cheap plastic crap I would never want to use. However they have had a military contract for designated marksman scopes so the engineering and toolling and all was essentially paid for by a Government contract. Some of the local National Guard Snipers have used it and it is the real deal.
