looks awesome, who did the cnc work? i just fitted a 3d printed titanium bolt knob, saved 60 grams and looks cool.

Just get a .270? beats the 7prc hands down

if you look at my .308 build, they look mint fluted if you don't mind that look

Thanks, how far foward would you go?

Sounds like you are forming a nice plan, cerakote was midnight blue i believe. Pillars are quite important as the wood is quite "soft" on these and if you are going to the effort of bedding (which...

Your not wrong there, best part about a wood stock is having a few battle scars

cheers, Awesome to hear, they are beautiful rifles, worth "saving" and even better in the world's best caliber (.270) Resene paint stripper applied generously then wrapped in gladwrap for a few hours...

Not to mention the box ammo from Hornady is such high quality now that for hunting application or people that shoot less than 20 rounds a year it is more than consistent/powerful enough.

Haha yep, figured it would trigger someone. Nothing like a bit of low stress farm hunting. on a technicality they were wild by about 5m i reckon.

Yeah i hear you, bit of a shame but the numbers here are crazy, need to shoot everything we come across.

350m, Doing the job nicely

"Other Calibre"? you spelt Superior wrong. I'm a big .270 fan, Does everything the .308 does but better

haha thanks, yeah was a bit of a decision as the rifle has history with me but not much use sitting in the safe, rather get it humming and use it. You're right about the barrel, thin little bugger...

Yeah quite a fan of those, put one in my carbon Tikka, however, was worried the thin wood wouldn't be strong enough? what do you think?

Don't know how to tag you, thought you may want a look at the finished product. cheers

thanks mate, 2508grams, or 5.529lb. was a Featherweight to start with, i just wanted to make it more "modern"

Finally finished, Had Bolt and barrel fluted by Greystone guns and Cerakoted. came out pretty good I think.

good info, thanks

Yeah, its currently away getting cerakoted and i want to have a good go at finding a good round for it once i get it back

Thanks for the advice, will try the 165s. other rifle is under the "projects and home builds" thread Carbon Tikka 6.5 PRC. shoots bloody well.

You might be right, just stick to the sako

As good a place as any to start

Sub inch at 300m. Stoked.
