    The Manners stocks great! Was it much of a drama to import it?

    Yep they don't export themselves, and you need a FFL dealer to get you a permit and it can be shipped to them. Permits cost and not worth doing for small one off deals. Might change if Mr Trump gets his way... at least for items not being actions.

    T3x .270, have had it for a while but recently had an NZ Armourer suppressor fitted. Typical Tikka accuracy and excellent .270 performance.

    Nice feeling when it all comes together after a lot of waiting for deals and free time to assemble it.

    Stumpys new coat..

    Massive shout out to the guys at Southfort Labs in Cambridge.. https://www.southfortlabs.com/

    First they donated this stock to a worthy cause couple years ago at Sika Show.


    I went in to the bucket with my offer and won the bidding !

    Been sitting round since but finally came up with a cunning plan to get it slightly modded and bedded for my Stumpy .308

    Once again Southfort to the rescue. Mint job of the bedding plus shortening the CF Stock. Great service no mucking about with these guys, they know their stuff..

    Nice and short.. Few little extras. Shooting 125 gr slighty compressed loads very well @ 2850 IIRC.

    Total weight as in pics = 3.7 kgs
