I'm right in the middle of my senior year, and it's my first winter in a long time not skiing competitively and traveling around the country. Recently, I got into longer range shooting, and decided to turn our old 700 243 into a long range 'yote and steel killer!

So I basically just dove in head first... threw a rattle can job on the old synthetic stock and a Burris Fullfield II I had around, and then sent the scope off to Burris for an elevation turret.

Mickey Coleman sent me a new takeoff 243 tube, and Dan Dowling trued up my reciever, lugs, and bolt face and screwed the new pipe on for me. Dan and Mickey are awesome guys!

So here it is all setup, some Burris Signature Zee Rings (thanks for the recommendation JordanSmith) and a cheapo 20 MOA base. As it sits boresighted I've got about 35 MOA of up in this scope, hopefully it'll stay around 30 after I zero! I've also got one of those Bushnell 3200 10x Tacticals to try on it.

A total polished turd, but hey I'm on a budget smile
