    New stock project

    Been a bit inspired by MDT's Hnt26 stocks. I can't bring myself to spend $3k on one though so I've embarked on a do it myself project. I will incorporate a folding stock and will make a carbon fibre butt and forend.
    I bought an MDT Oryx for $760 from the guys at Reloaders.
    I'm not a fan of metal mags so I bought a Pmag which has required opening up the maxwell a bit, so that was done with Mitch who shortened the barrel on my Tikka at the same time.
    My intention is to have the forend meet the back the suppressor.

    I've also got a mate who's very handy with 3D printing and we have some ideas as to how to get a lighter result, so we may make some items to bring down the weight further...
