New custom 300 Remington Ultra Magnum built by Dark Moon Arsenal.

Defiance AnTi action
TriggerTech Special trigger
RHR bottom metal with new spring (holds better tension than factory)
Wyatts extended box
Carbon Six 20” 1:8 Sendero Profile
Manners EH1 stock — Full action bedding using Marine-Tex
Custom Titanium 3-port self timing muzzle brake
Talley rings 30mm extra high rings, both pinned and bedded (yes, it will barely fit a NX8 2.5-20x50. These are the only rings that currently allow for that. See pictures)
Graphite Black H series Cerakote and fiber laser engraving, with E series on the bolt/inner rails (smoother than H series)

Rifle weighs 6 lbs 9oz with the brake, but without optics.

Rifle was ordered with load dev 98 rounds through it for breaking/dev, comes with 50 rounds loaded and data.

Berger 215s at 3070 fps with 9 fps ES (Magneto V3).

$3,600 just rifle shipped in cardboard, $3,800 in a hard case. $4,800 shipped with Nightforce NX8 2.5-20x50 MOAR. $5,000 with optic and hard case. Only trade I will consider is a glock 43/43x, sig365, or magnum bolt face tikka. For any of which I would knock off $500-600 only. Scope not for sale separately.

Minus that ring set up, that’s the to a T exact gun/caliber I’ve been wanting to build.
Christmas not a great time. Wish I could find a way.
Nice build!

I do take credit card ;) Unfortunately that is the only ring setup to run the 2.5-20 NX8 on that action. Tried hawkins originally, but their website was mistaken over 1/4” off from fitting.

Any pics of accuracy?

200 yd groups during load dev. I have redacted the charge and seating depth data because I don’t want someone to try it and get hurt if it’s overpressure in their rifle. Both groups are 4 round, 200 yds, off bipod and a sandbag. Left group is 1 grain less powder than right. Right group was chosen. 500 and 1000 were on steel so I just have my notes. 1.301” at 500 and 2.753” at 1000.

I used the Salmon River two piece 20 moa on this anti. The photo shows a Zeiss scope but I’ve run my NX8 on this rifle as well.

I’m not a RUM guy, but your rifle looks like a sweet setup.

Absolutely if you mount 2 piece pic rails it opens up possibilities, but at that point I would recommend the integrated rails on the AnTi X. I always prefer one mechanical connection instead of two when possible. As far as direct mount rings go, this is the only option for something short like the NX8 2.5-20. If it was the 4-32 or something longer like the zeiss or a NXS then it would have been Hawkins all the way. Hawkins spaces theirs farther from the ejection port though, and would contact the bell about 1/4” in front of the body/bell junction.
