Timney tactical trigger

This thing shoots pretty well. Finally got to sight it in yesterday, tried a few different loads but best 3 shot group was with some OLD random reloads I got off somebody, I think they're Sierra's...

Hard to see on some monitors, 0.284"

Might of missed it somewhere but what cal Kurt?

Yeah as Eben says .308 for FTR

FTR, F class all the same to me as I have never done it.

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

I am not really familiar with the scout,but I thought the Steyr scout had a bipod built into the fore stock. So have you mounted a bipod to a bipod or do not all scouts have that feature? Or do I have my Scouts mixed up with another rifle?

That old girl looks familiar. Glad to see you are getting the same accuracy I was. I used Sellior and Bellot with reasonable results which may or may not help.....

I had to machine a slot in the action cutout behind the trigger guard,a wee bit off the trigger hanger and fettle the magazine lips.Bipod spigot is a home-made one as the threads in the forestock are 10-24 x 3/8...or they used to be...!There is a fixed stock adaptor holding the Ace on so its quite long and I had to get a rail as the eye relief ran out.

Is it possible to post more pics, side profiles etc.

The inbuilt bipod is pretty high and has no adjustment in it, so for bench resting and prone purposes I bought a detachable one as the inbuilt is more of a last resort.

Not enough eye relief on 20 power

What it f%"£ing did.More work needed
