    Cool, .....maybe a suppressor would be more versatile?, my .223 has a real bark to it without the can, even with plugs and electronic muffs.

    Here's my Scout with the bling i picked up for it recently.
    It's currently got my old Sightron S2 Big Sky on it and i haven't got the correct rings to mount the new optic yet, but i threw it on anyway

    Atlas BT10 bipod with ADM QD lever
    Versapod UIT to Picatinny adapter
    US Optics anti cant device
    Vortex Optics anti cant device (got a bargain on it)
    Vortex Viper PST 6-24x50 FFP scope (with butler creek covers)

    Originally i was going to do a 2 tone stainless/black look, but the new optic is gonna throw that aside.

    P.S... Probably not classified as a "Scout" rifle anymore

    And before any one calls me a girl because of the brake on a 223, I shoot to relax... keeping recoil to a minimum is part of that relaxing....

    Best I can do is a 3 inch group of 8 at 200m... limiting factor will be me not the gun.

    Get a suppressor, 100x's better than that silly brake

    Heading out for a hunt Friday morning so lets see if I can get some blood on it.

    (ignore the gay rings and cheap scope, a bolt grind + lower rings and zeiss or IOR is heading its way

    Nice piece of wood on that for a "standard" rifle.
    Experience. What you get just after you needed it.

    Not a new toy, but the 20 round mag is.



    Molot Vepr in .308Win, so you can imagine the fun it is to source mags larger than 5 rounds.
    Special order with the lovely folks at Brownells (real good price too). Ordered two Promags initially, as Promags reputation precedes them.
    After 17 week wait, they finally arrived.

    As expected with Promag, hours of fitting required to: A - make then fit the mag well, B - remove all the sharp edges off everything, to save my fingers and palms.
    Cycles well with snap caps, will find out if they do with the real thing this Sunday.
    If all goes to plan, I'll get another permit and then order some more.

    I must be back to front - so you are saying a Harris bipod goes on so the the legs fold down the stock rather than under the barrel?? Confused.
