    Thanks, yep it does the job, it weighs almost as much as the rifle at 980gr but clear and tracks well. The chassis was designed around the use of this kind of compact low powered variable optics as there are plenty out there without homes after the Semi auto confiscation.

    Sent barreled action up this week. Looking forward to seeing it back here in a month or so, in all its compact goodness. Then my wife will get her wee Tikka back, which I must say has been a pleasure to cart around in the tight stuff.

    Should have them in the next couple of days. I've been working through all the pre orders and have most of them set up to customers spec and ready to drop into the chassis when they arrive.
    Did yours today @Sidetrack

    Thank you sir, you’re a scholar and a gentleman. Heading to the mountains tomorrow for a week or two, depending on weather, so look forward to an update when I’m back.
