    Picked this up yesterday from a forum member Jaco Goosen who did the work on it.
    This guy does an awesome job and a quick turn around.
    He even coated the barrel and action for me which was an awesome surprised.
    Sourced all the parts off the forum as this is a cheap build to see what I think of the caliber.
    Off to test it out this morning with factory loaded 175 ELDX

    What length barrel did you go for @25/08 IMP? Is it a new barrel or did you rechamber something?

    I've gone 20" and it was a brand new Tikka 7-08 barrel that Jaco reamed.
    First two groups once I got it hitting paper.
    2800fps from factory 175 ELDX after 10 rounds.

    Had this for a wee while now but only recently got the stock. A huge thanks to @Sideshow who helped get the stock over to me from Slovenia. The company is called Carbonomix and the bare stock weighs 454g total weight in the photo is 3618g. 6.5CM barrel.

    Picked this up a while ago after i sold my mini due to not being able to find a nice light hubter stock for it that didn't cost more than the barreled action or wasn't a chassis.
    This was a cancelled export order from Hardys.

    Howa 1500
    1:8 twist Duracoated Stainless Hardy match barrel (was originally 28" now a much more user friendly 20")
    Bedded in a factory Howa walnut stock
    Trigger about 2.5lbs very nice
    Nikko zero lok Talley knock offs
    Nikon Monarch 4-16×40
    DPT suppressor
    Been sitting at the smiths for a while but picked it up late yesterday, cant wait to get it back to the range it shot fantastic with fiocchi 55sp before the chop, thread and bed so expecting it to shoot as good or better post surgery all going well.

    Nothing flash but it was interesting so I had to have it. Little Beretta bolt action/semi auto 22lr. Functions well bolt or semi and is super accurate using irons
