I wanted a custom, light weight, shorty build for my girls and I to hunt with and to run suppressed. My build is a 6.5 SST with a 20" Proof barrel, Defiance Anti-X action, TriggerTech trigger, AG composite stock, Hawkins bottom metal, built by Weaver Rifles in CO. The rifle weighs just over 6 lbs. We have been loading Hornady 135 grain A-tips with 60 grains of N565 with a COAL of 2.92". Velocity was 2950 fps. Still have to paint the stock and cerakote the rifle. Expecting the suppressor to add 20-30 fps. Pic below is the first 3 rounds down the barrel so it's showing great promise!
