Eddie sure builds a nice rifle, detail & cerekote work is the best I've ever received/seen from a custom rifle.

6lbs 10oz, I like heavier sporter contours so we removed weight by cutting 21" and keep shank under 1"
12 twist .710 MD

I like that a lot! I've got light sporters and Sendero-ish stuff in overlapping chamberings, but I often think that a well-thought-out "tweener" might could be the best option. A 21" .308 with a .700" or so muzzle seems like a good place to be.

What scope is that?

'tweeners rock! I'm a big fan of 'tweeters. Stiff enough tube to shoot well, portable enough to hunt with

That is sweet and is an inspiration.
You have helped me confirm my "need" for another tweener short action.

Not sure how one can consider a sub 7 lb. rifle a 'tweener, but......ok.

Nice stick Stoney......

Heck never heard the name 'tweener', though I've not been around 24hr much this summer to keep up with the 24hr slang. smile
