6BR BORMA SHOULDERED PREFIT & ZERMATT ORIGIN BUILD
Darrell from Missouri sent us some photos and information on his recent 6BR Norma shouldered prefit build using components he purchased from Northland Shooter Supply (NSS).
Here are the specifications for the parts Darrell purchased from NSS:
– 26” Criterion Shouldered Prefit- MTU Contour- 6BR Norma- 8 Twist with Muzzle Thread
– Zermatt Arms Origin- Right Hand / Short Action
– MDT XRS Chassis- Flat Dark Earth
Here is what Darrell had to say about his build and experience:
“I’m so pleased with my experience with NSS and performance of my new rifle, I had to submit a testimonial.
First off, I’m an absolute rookie.
Prior to October of last year, I shot fewer than 10 rounds a year, basically a few rounds the week before deer season, and 1 or 2 rounds at a deer if the opportunity presented itself.
My neighbor is an avid shooter, and I decided to get a rifle more appropriately suited to shoot with him. I knew I didn’t want an off the shelf gun, I like to tinker and make things difficult (In this case it was not more difficult). Building a gun seems intimidating and I wasn’t into long waits and shipping the action and barrel to a gunsmith.
Assembling a gun seemed doable. The Zermatt Origin was the answer.
NSS was awesome to deal with. Shipping time was incredible, 3 days or less on both my orders.
I’ll quit rambling and get to it.
– Zermatt Origin
– Criterion 6mm BR Norma MTU 1:8
– MDT XRS
– Vortex Strike Eagle 5-25×56
Assembling was easy, and accuracy is unbelievable. First trip out 3 days ago, 3 shot group of .19 at 100 yds. Second trip out today, 5 shot group of .23 at 100 yds.
I’m sold. Can’t wait to build another one.”
Thanks for sharing your build and results with us, Darrell. We appreciate the opportunity to help customers build accurate, easy-to-assemble rifles with the Zermatt Origin and Criterion pre-fit barrel system.
