    Good to here. Yes the std stocks can be plain. They are generally straight and good wood though. I paid a little extra and got a grade 2 on my Victory. They have a better designed stock with cheek piece. They have just started with a synthetic stock as well which looks like the Victory design. They have a very slick bolt. I have two Sauer 90’s and the S&L’s are close to as smooth. The smaller Legacy is very nice as well. I have it in .223 and it’s a pleasure to carry and shoot.

    A Legacy in 6x45 would be a dream.

    Looks like it would be a prick to clean all the mud out off after you drop it.... But who drops their rifle does look nice though and different to everyone else

    haha yeah you are probably right. Never dropped a rifle in mud though. Guess you could remove it from the bolt, hose it off and let it dry before reassembling.Being titanium it doesn't need oiling at least. If the rifles been used it wet conditions its good to take the bolt apart for a oil anyway so not a big deal there.

    And you could use it to grate cheese or whack it up your nose and trim your nostril hairs while sitting around the camp fire.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Or use it as a small rice / noodle strainer ...for those that don't like the noodle soup & when your night hunting put a small glowbug in there for faster bolt acquisition

    Lol..yeah mate...not the first time Ive heard that.Interesting you say that that,I have a range of rifles,mostly composite stocks....and old 303,and 30.06 with wood stocks....before buying this I had the chance to shoot the wood model v,s the composite model,and the difference in comfortability was measureable,not worried about dings,dents etc,its a rifle,it likes to be shot....very happy with it.

    Working to bring it back to kiwi,and keep it back there,the resale value if anything is worth it....my worry..... @KiwiinSeattle has taken a liking to it,wil have to chain it down

    300 blaser mag - not new but sent her to weight watchers to drop half a kg courtesy of a @stug stock and clipped on a vertebrae c/f bipod
    worked up a new load with @300AAC earlier in the week using 215gr Berger hybrids and she's ready to go for the roar

    R8 or R93?
    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds
