Play on the range today, ended up I had been a bit mean to her at last Toby shoot and throat was flogged, lucky there's insane people out there who buy brand new finnlights in 270wsm and take the barrel off to build a silly 7saum so local gunsmith had a brand new barrel laying about. Back to her old self and shooting LRABs now :)

Thought you were selling that or did you buy it off a forum member?
I am selling it but it seems people would rather spend their money on plastic guns than real Sakos...Quote:

I know what you mean. I have my A11 for sale (243) at a local retailer, but no interest in over 3 weeks. May have to look at the price again in order to attract more attention that the tuppaware TikasQuote:

In my case, I have a rather unexpected bill to pay :(Quote:

It seems the only time I post in this thread it's to show one of the kids guns!
So I have been trying to do something light for my 10 year old who is just getting in to speed steel and ipsc mini rifle. I did look at the S&W15-22 again but I cant get past the fact you cannot get a 15 round mag for them. It's 10 in an acat config and thats it. Not much good for our competitions but I did like the weight..
Ended up making this. It's 1950grams without optic and a bit under 2200 grams with the holosun. That extra 200 grams does feel like quite a bit though.. Still, quite happy. Ended up being about 400 grams lighter than a 15-22 thanks to the light stock and CF handguard. That and the fact I put the barrel in the lathe and removed 200mm off it..
Having the really short barrel does make a difference to the feel of the weight, with the mass back towards the receiver its much easier to hold reload on the move for him.

basic charging handle
CMMG barrel/bolt

4.160 Kgs, 9.17 lbs so a little lighter than my last one, might need a bigger brake with 300s at 3K+

Looking forward to getting it up the Range in a wee while :)
Now that's nice Greg :thumbsup:
Looks real neat Greg,,what make is stock???
So what case is the 338 terminator based on and roughly how many grains powder needed for a 300gr bullet at over 3000fps????

There's some nasty rumours out there so I thought I'd set the story straight
Perhaps the nicest rifle I've had, my lousy pics don't come close to doing it justice.
Thanks to Ryan for all the help

Toby will be in fits of laughter in his grave mate!! Well done and go you for coming out sweetheart :D :D :D
Yawn....:D
@BRADS did you have to go the two piece Opti's to get the correct eye relief with that model of scope? or is that what it came with?
I'd like to think of it more as bisexual after all it's not a blaser [emoji16]Quote:
