Why we built it
Dan wanted the first Brick House Accuracy Signature Build to be a rifle for his son Cody. The aim was simple: build a rifle they can hunt and compete with for years to come.
Brian handled the precision machining and assembly. Dan led the ammunition development and documented testing. The result is a purpose-built 25 Creedmoor that carries more meaning than a component list ever could.
“If he wears it out, I'll rebarrel it.”
The rifle
Every component was selected to serve the rifle's intended use, then assembled and documented as one system. The goal was a system with the accuracy and reduced recoil needed for competition, while retaining practical kinetic energy for deer and varmint hunting applications.
Chosen from experience
This rifle was intentionally specified with products Dan has used and trusts on the range and in the field. These are the firsthand reasons they fit Cody's system.
The Area 419 self-timing muzzle brake was selected for its clean look, straightforward setup, and confident recoil reduction in this system. The matching Area 419 rings were chosen because, in Dan’s experience, their fit and finish stand apart—the kind of component that feels more like aerospace equipment than an afterthought.
Dan has used Arken EP5 scopes for years of target shooting with strong results. That firsthand familiarity made it the right optic choice here, keeping the project focused on the complete rifle system rather than spending unnecessarily on an unfamiliar setup.
The MDT ACC Premier GEN2 chassis was selected for a folding stock that feels solid, does not interfere with bolt operation when folded, and can be carried in a backpack for a mountain hunt. It also delivered the quiet, solid feel Dan wanted, without the vibration noise he has experienced in some other metal chassis systems.
The people
Machining & assembly
Brian performed the precision machining and assembled the rifle system with the same care that goes into every Brick House project.
Testing & ammunition development
Dan developed the test ammunition and recorded the performance work shown below, keeping the documented results in their proper context.
Testing & performance
All group results shown on this page were fired at 100 yards and are reported in inches. They document this rifle's recorded test session; they are not a guarantee or an average for future rifles.
Primary documented result
0.438 in.
100 yards
The selected seating-depth follow-up produced this recorded five-shot confirmation group. Four impacts clustered tightly and one widened the group. At 100 yards, the documented 0.438-inch group is below 0.5 MOA.
Seating-depth test
3 shots · 100 yards
Three-shot seating-depth test group, not the five-shot confirmation.

Recipe notes have been redacted from the target photographs; the recorded impacts and group-size annotations are unchanged.
Velocity snapshot
This 16-shot chronograph session used mixed seating depths. The other ammunition components and powder charge remained unchanged. It is a documented session snapshot, not a final-load validation at one seating depth.
