@robhughes-games
Is that a Ken Henderson/Hi-Tec stock?
Did you have to bed it?
Looks great!

Is anyone running a Leupold VX5HD 2-10 on their Model 7 with Talley rings (30mm tube)?? If so, what height rings did you use to give enough barrel clearance?
Am looking at changing from a Z3, so if anyone has photos of that set-up, it would be much appreciated.

Used Talley 30mm low with a 50mm obj on my 700 and had clearance, but not used them on my mod 7(weaver bases and contessa 30mm low), but it should be fine?

Be interested in if they still do this work, without Robbie on the tools? Very nice work. Originally Posted by Sidney

You may have inspired me to get it finished.
I bet you're looking forward to shooting it, will it be run suppressed?
