    Well another job complete...

    Ruger M77 Hawkeye, re-barreled & chambered by Hugh Bradley at Bradley Barrels in .22-243.
    Took a while to decide on colour but have gone for Titanium, I think it sits well with the Hatcher Silhouette Australian Walnut Stock.
    Vortex Viper PST Gen II 5-25x50 and A-Tec Maxim Suppressor to finish it off...

    Looking forward to getting this out and testing my new RWS projectiles...

    @Double Shot whats your opinion of the Gen 2 PST's?
    I was hell bent on getting one of the 5-25's in MILs but they only come in FFP and I prefer SFP.
    It seems scope manufacturers are only offering MILs in FFP in new models now.

    Hey @wsm junkie well I like them, must do I have 4 lol 3x 5-25x50 but mine are all MOA.
    I suspect the reason for no SFP Mil is because of the Mil, really can 't be sure but can certainly ask.
    Have been looking at your model Razor, would love one but in MOA, how ever $$$ are out of my range.
    Might be an expert around here that can explain the reason for FFP only.

    Cheers @Double Shot.
    I emailed Vortex asking why no SFP MILs and just got the generic reply...We are not offering it at this time.
    Yeah the Razor is pretty nice...heavy but nice

    Customer has returned with another rifle for a little TLC, this a P17 chambered in 6.5-06.

    The ol' girl has had her make over now and is sporting a custom blend of Gun Metal Grey & Titanium Blue.

    Now for some sighting in and perhaps a deersie...

    Nice work mate.
    Can you please PM me a roughly price for coating a Howa 1500 upper receiver + barrel + bolt?
    My wife doesn't like the stainless steel, but I don't want it get rusted as it is mainly for outdoor hunting.
    Cheers

    Had an enquiry from a potential customer on Cerakoting a set of motorcycle hubs, being up for the challenge and something new I ripped into it. Burnt Bronze the colour of choice, and a damn good colour at that. Cheeky buggar (sorry Daniel) had the fork spreaders with him so they got dressed in Graphite Black. All in all I'm pleased and good luck with the build Daniel.

    Now this Benelli M2 is a cool shottie, never held one before, love the sites on it and what a great feel, sadly I had to return it to my customer. It's now decked out in Magpul FDE and looking smashing I say...

    Was asked by a customer and friend about corrosion resistance for Cerakote.
    A rock in a local harbour was having a new marker made and needed to be durable in a hostile marine environment, well Cerakote is your go to stuff...
    The marker will have Red reflective tape added.

    Was asked by a good customer to dress his Howa 1500 .22-250 to match it's new stock, so Magpul FDE it is with black highlights, has come up looking great...
