Cool project.
I made this one about 6 years ago. I built the stock (walnut) and bedded it, then made the suppressor from scratch, lightened the trigger, slicked up the action, cut down the barrel and self taught myself to thread and crown the barrel on my lathe.
It was offered to me by a work mate (for $200 for donar rifle) who brought it for culling work, it didn't suit his needs and he went back to using (abusing) his sako vixen. I cut it flush with the stock, but it then only held 3 rounds which was a bit of a handicap for my needs. Overall I liked this rifle and wish they made one with a 5 shot hinged floor plate magazine, then that would be a great little shooter.
I'll follow you build with interest, many thanks for posting
