    No shooting update, but tidied up the rear a bit during my lunch break. Bit of a pain in arse to slowly and carefully remove it but happy with the result. 230853 230854

    I doubt an external frame will help your shoulder with loads. A really good pack harness with a waist belt that grips on your hips like a teenage nymphomaniac will make the biggest difference imo....

    It is the new D18 barrel that is found on the Veil Alpine, Wideland, S20s and Roughtech. It is heavier than the standard lite or super lite barrel. This was the only way we were getting sign off...

    At $390 you would expect a near perfect pillar bedding. With aluminium Pilars . A couple of small to very small air bubbles under the rifle receiver are acceptable provided the rest of the finish ,...

    It’s a bigger problem now though for the OP than just a rubbish looking bedding job. He was trying to address issues relating to accuracy and rightly decided to try bedding. Now, in my opinion, he...

    I'd be pissed if I paid $390 and got that back. Bloody poor finish. He couldn't even run some fine grit paper around the edges corners by finger just to tidy/debur it. I've bedded a dozen different...
