Has the rifle been tested for accuracy using air?

I'll give you a full report using air in a few weeks. I have no doubt it'll be an MOA rifle on air.

Thanks for the clarification Bob, I had only heard of many people using Nitrogen, and didn't know about the added benefits of helium.

Again great rifle and shooting guys,

Casey

I am pulling for you guys... I just bet my neighbor a lawn mow each way that at 200 yards sub moa...

I am optimistic about conditions and ability so will venture you achieve about a 1.75" group...

Man it has to be satisfying after all the work, and going this direction with the round despite the nay saying...

Thanks for the kind words of encouragement. We're actually hoping the conditions (wind) is at its worst so the 200 grain BBT can do what it does best BUCK WIND.

Better tell your neighbor to get his lawn mower ready! LOL!

Looking good gentlemen, I am looking forward to your 200 yard results!

Side note:

Are those stocks hydrodripped?

If so who do you have do it?

Rizen 1 · « **Reply #47 on:** September 25, 2015, 08:28:40 AM »

Yes they are dipped. Virginia hydro designs in Winchester VA. Is who did these. Dustin Fauver is the owner and a personal friend of mine. He does beautiful work.

Extreme 308's won both first and second in the extreme benchrest big bore shoot in Mesa AZ this weekend using the 200 gn BBT in less than favorable conditions. Winds varying from 12-20 mph with little to no wind correction. Thanks for the winning bullet Bob Sterne!

I'm extremely pleased that the .308 Whiteout bullet performed as intended.... I let Veral know that it was a success.... Thanks, Mike, for requesting that I design a bullet for this task.... It was a pleasure working with you, Chris, Brent, and Veral on this project....

Let's get started for next year!

rsterne · « **Reply #51 on:** October 05, 2015, 05:03:52 PM »

Helium or Air?.... If air, do you think the 132 gr. is the way to go, or should I do up a drawing for the 153 gr?.... The 132 gr. Veral already has a nose pattern for, heavier ones would require a new ogive pattern.... All will use the 8* boattail pattern from the Whiteout.... with the base shortened as appropriate....

How do you win 1st AND 2nd place? We're they judging bullet looks too? Oh wait, multiple shooters?

My son and I were able to have dinner and sit next to them at their table while the rewards were handed out. On top of having a top notch gun and bullet combo they are some of the nicest and most humble guys you can meet. It was a real pleasure to meet them and watch them receive their well deserved victory. Great job guys.

We had two guns shooting the BBT'S.. the Alpha 30 and the Whiteout . Both guns built by Brent Hoag at Extreme Big Bore. We placed 1st and 2nd with these guns. Thank you for the kind words Nick. It was a pleasure meeting you and your son. Good luck with your swaged bullets. They looked amazing! I'm sure we will be ordering some in 22 cal when you are ready.

Mike, Chris you guys ROCK!!!!!!!! I just want to thank you guy's and I am so glad that I made that late night phone call to Chris and said lets build a rifle and go win this thing and he called you and asked if this guy meaning me is for real. So then the white out was born then you have to come up to the north land and some how sweet talk the alpha 30 out of me in a couple days LOL it just goes to show you when people go the extra mile it all works out and there was not one person on this team that did not do everything in there power to make this happen. Give both of yourself credit it was ultimately you two that made it happen again GREAT job.

I was looking back through my files, photos, and old posts tonight, trying to figure out when I first started talking about the possibility of using boattails for subsonic use in airguns.... The earliest thing I could find was Oct. 26, 2013, when I first suggested they were worth investigating.... By early December of 2013, I had cast my first Bob's Boattail, a .300 cal in 70 gr.... We've come a long way in less than 2 years....
