Late to the thread, but she came out beautiful. Midnight blue on the cerakote is fantastic. End to end I don't think you could have made a better decision anywhere. Now go ventilate a buncha critters...
Excellent tribute to Bob by the way. He would have appreciated it greatly I'm sure, especially laying across a bruiser bull.
Will hopefully be picking up some new top end tactical meopta glass shortly to compare against the Schmidts on mine. Can't wait to see your range reports.
Thank you. Just as soon as I get a break in the weather I plan on getting it out and getting some formed cases ready for the real load work. I am half thinking if it shoots as good as the old rechambered M70 this rifle replaced load work will be short and give me plenty of time to shoot it long this year.
