    Thanks Tuiman2 and Stug

    Metal work by Abe, CF stock by Stug. I haven't fired it in the new stock yet, but it was punching .5'' groups prior to that with ease...





    Cheers

    Real guns start with the number 3 or bigger and make two holes, one in and one out

    Sweet looking rifle KJ
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Looks to be a little nicer looking than a terminator.

    It’s a 7mmSTW, with 82.5gr ADI2225 I was getting about 3250fps with a 162Amax, but I'm not 100% confident in my Chrony anymore as in the morning it said 3400fps (!!!!!), then came back to 3250fps in the afternoon which is more believable? In fact it was such a mind fuck that I had to email Greg Duley for some wise council as I managed to totally confuse myself based on the dodgy Chrony data I was getting and started to really doubt myself and the technique I was using - all sorted now, and during my load development it punched out a 0.5MOA ladder test (5 shots, with 2% powder increases)!!! It’s a real shooter for sure!!!

    I haven’t weighed it yet, but the stock was about 650grams. I think it’s going to sit about 9lb all up ready to hunt, which is pretty good for a Sendero profiled barrel.
