    Had a case for a while, rain day so cut slots with a hot screwdriver, not very well,(stock and barrel without sights) bought a electric soldering gun with hot knife for the tip, did a better job on the scope and upper barrel, but runs too cold and difficult to keep going, might get another foam and try again sometime.
    But K95 with 3 barrels and 3 scopes.

    I use a craft knife fully extended and keep heating that up red hot with a butane torch, cuts through it very cleanly and quickly.

    I bought a cheap electric carving knife from Briscoes, doesn’t get much easier

    Looks well protected, I'd flip the foam and have the wood towards the case spine.
    What barrels do you have?

    I have found an electric knife does a nice job.

    It's definitely not great when you forget to put your ear pro back on in a concrete bunker

    Hardly “gunporn” no one’s into porn with uglys but it is new,
    I’m undecided if it’s going to be a lightish weight hunter in which case il get a z5 for it and keep the carbon stock or flick the carbon stock for a heavy chassis rig (had a small heart attack at the price of chassis so unlikely) with an element helix or just a longs range varminter goat slaying fallow bowling beast in the factory stock without worrying about weight which is the most likely scenario either way it’s a little pocket rocket shooting 80gn eldm 3175fps or 69gn targex at 3300 first tests with 80 eldm printed half moa with no effort rapidly fired at that. I have seating depth tests loaded but visitors have being none stop today tikka t3 22-204R.
