Thread: 223 Scope

Its a l h thumbhole because I injured my right eye. I can shoot better groups with it than the original sako one.
The stuff is so light you can leave a bit of bulk on it for strength.

A great stock like that deserves a Niggelah sling @Brian

Looking at the size of those growth rings no wonder it's light

@Marty Henry for some reason I have in the back of my mind that Toby H planted some. We certainly talked about it in the district.

Good job mate, cheers for posting, can't wait until my shed is built and I can make a start on one for myself

but it sure is light.....I stuffed it up by removing too much material from guts of it,but by strategic placement of shims/washers seem to have rectafied issue...will try it again to see if it shoots straight and might just have to take it for a wander.
oh and back on topic,thats an older 3x9x50mm vx111 on top...perfect for the .223.
