Yep Savage 14 in 7mm08, hence the latte comment. Paid $460, its practically theft for a rifle that nice! Second hand but in great condition, nicer wood than the Mod 14 223 I already have.
So, I've been asked to post up pics of my newly acquired Valmet Hunter M88 .308 - here she is
My new ish 6.5 spanker 😃
Dan Hardy barrel #2 fluted at 22"
McMillan mountain rem stock with edge tech
Bager bottom metal with alpha mags cut down to 4 shot
Modified t3 talley rings
My titanium receiver and bolt a mix of t3/Remington/barnard
Accepts barnard match triggers
March scope
Comes in at 2.92kg as shown
Thats a very nice and well thought out rig! Cheered me up after watching the Warriors lose again
Yip, if it shoots the way it should then I expect I'll be putting putting the Ruger 308 up for sale before too long - no point keeping both of them and I prefer the Savage action.
Sako 85, 308
tikka 7mm rem mag. (carbon stock, fluted bolt, half cock, talleys and a MK4 4.5-14)

A few weeks ago I pre ordered a gun from Ken at NZAR15... Anticipating its arrival on Saturday I went home (from Uni) but the uncertainty of it arriving in the mail on Saturday made it a long morning waiting for the postie..
When the postie turned up I could hardly contain my excitement!!
As you can see below, I already had all of the other components ready waiting for it. The scope from @300_BLK , Fab Defense grip from @Sasquatch , plastic 30mm to 1" inserts from Aliexpress, ammo from Barnaul NZ and Burris PEPR from NZAR15.
My brother, girlfriend and I got straight into cleaning and assembling - putting all the parts together felt like playing with lego .
Unfortunately the magazine isn't here yet so we had to single load every shot.. It had 60 rounds put through it in a day and half and I'm so happy with it! Best purchase I've made in a while.
Top to bottom: Savage .223, Savage .270, NEA 14.5" 7.62x39 (planning to make it shorter and suppress)
PS its a loud bastard with the short barrel and muzzle brake! Quite a shock wave if standing to the side of it.
The most impressive part of all that is that you gf helped put it all together

Looks good man, that box was certainly ripped apart in excitement :-)
