    BSA 308 Project "She lives again"

    Been a long winded project as i have been very slack with getting onto it but after alot of hours its finally done
    Picked it up on trademe cheap for a project as i had never done anything before so thought it would be fun
    Stripped the stock down
    played with the checkering the best i could with some small files
    Stained and oiled the stock
    free floated the barrel channel
    stripped down all the rust and bluing and reblued barrel and action etc
    this is the end product
    Enjoy

    Just used the brichwood Casey deluxe kit had the bluing and walnut stain and tru oil in it.
    Not sure how it shoots
    The bore is not the best condition but I'm hoping it will be under 2" at 100y
    Haha we will see

    Nice job.
