    Mine has had a recent overhaul. Added a lightweight stock to get rid of that heavy factory junk.

    Wildcat Composite - 480gm plus the recoil pad. these come unfinished. So might paint it, or leave as is (have had the stock for a while, but only just get around to fitting it).

    260Imp 30 degree (reamer from @Mathias). Didn't have much trouble hitting the 1,000yd gong last weekend with it.

    This has added about another 2 inches to the length of pull too. Making it a more natural feel to shoot.
