18" barrel from maxim with matched bolt.
Integrity arms billet upper (side charge), hsndguards and lower, Hogue grip and stock, velocity 3# trigger.
Man I love this rifle, didn't know why I didn't use a side charger before.
Took it to the range zeroed with hand loads then put 2 shots on same hole at 100yds with factory 123 black ammo.

Very nice looking stick! Good to have a non-reciprocating handle too.

Tools, I have often wondered if a side charger might facilitate a more stealthy (quieter) loading while hunting. What do you find to be the case? Are there any other attributes of a side charger that you would pass on to us fence sitters. I would like to hear your impressions or take away's. Thanks

I have been contemplating on a side charge upper myself. I'm interested to see how people like it. I shoot lefty but I am also ambidextrous in a hunting application. I am really right handed but severely left eye dominant. I would like a side charge handle for my right hand so I don't have to move my trigger hand.

Very nice build btw...
