    Had this rifle in .223 for about 10 years, most of those years its had a 10" cut down barrel. Drops anything you point it at...can't complain

    Things are slow

    The build is taking time to get things together, but it on the slow move again.
    Have hand it over to greghud to put things in place, the shoulders wouldn't handle the sanding and it turn out the A bolt1 and A bolt 2 are a different fit.
    So some inletting as well have ask greg to keep pictures as it goes on.
    Pictures with the stock wetted to give a look at the grain.
    Will post as things progress.

    Hi Greg
    Have run the barrel in, but just shot it out the back.
    Have done some load development so ready at some stage to shoot.
    Will post when it's finished some of it's testing.
