KELBLY BIG BORE PANDA ACTION

The Big Bore Panda and Long Big Bore Panda actions are derivatives of the standard Panda action and are designed for competitors who need to use either a dovetail or side plate mounted iron sight. The Big Bore Panda's ribs are available in a narrower 60° dovetail or in a Picatinny-style rail. The rib can also be parallel to the bore or with a 0° 20’ tilt for long-range use. The 60° dovetail has been narrowed to accept an Anshütz-style iron sight. A side mount has been integrated into the design for a Redfield/Warner-style sight as shown above. Since these rifles usually use larger calibers than standard benchrest rifles, an integrated recoil lug has been added to increase the recoil area.

• When chambering for a Panda, Kodiak, or Grizzly barrel, cut the tenon to 1.0625” in diameter by 1.115” for a cone bolt action or 0.980” for a flat bolt action. For an Atlas barrel, cut the tenon to 1.0625” in diameter by 0.692” for a cone bolt action or 0.557” for a flat bolt action. It is recommended to turn the first 0.110” from the rear of the barrel to a 0.966” diameter. Leave the rear end of the barrel square for now.
• Thread the tenon to 1.0625 inches in diameter by 18 threads per inch. If using the three-wire method to measure the threads, the measurement should be 1.0715” plus 0.0000“, minus 0.0020” using 0.032” wires.
• For zero headspace on a cone bolt, run the chambering reamer in until the head-space gauge is flush with the rear of the barrel. For zero headspace on a flat bolt, run the chambering reamer in until the measurement from the base of the head-space gauge to the shoulder of the barrel is 1.115” for Panda, Kodiak, and Grizzly actions or 0.692“ for Atlas actions.
