Uintah Precision 6.5 Creedmoor

I made the leap to buy the 26" Uintah Precision upper in 6.5 creedmoor about 4 months ago. Paying over a $1000 for half a bolt action may seem crazy to some people, but it's the best $1295.00 you'll spend in my opinion. Coupled with a crisp 3 pound trigger this thing shoots really well.

I've been running Sierra 142's over Staball powder with great accuracy, velocity, and tight groups. I recently picked another one up in 6.5 Grendel but haven't taken it to the range yet.

Anyone else shooting this fun platform?

Glad to hear it is working well for you. Can you post a link, I'm not familiar with them.

My only interest in such a platform is if semi-auto AR's get banned eventually, most of the bolt handle add-on conversion kits for carriers seem to have disappeared from the market.

Thanks for the report. I've been looking at these guys for awhile now. I have a good long range 6.5 Gren AR build and this would be a good match with the lower on there (PRS stock, velocity drop in trigger, etc). I was thinking about going for the new 6mm ARC using a Unitah upper.
