    Decided to lighten this varmint rig up considerably by ditching the Laminate stock and fitting it up in my custom chassis. Thinned the barrel down a bit and carbon sleeved it.
    It has a much better LOP now and SOOO much lighter!
    Fitted a new lightweight M-Lok bipod to a super lightweight 13.5" fore end.
    This is my switch barrel rig and currently runs .17 Mach IV, .22 TCM, .223Rem and 6x45Rem

    Brilliant as usual. Thanks for the write up.

    Is the carbon sleeve a tube tensioned onto the barrel or a full thickness laminate?

    Its a carbon sleeve tensioned up over the thin barrel to hold it rigid.
