Bob,
I'm pretty much where I want to be in my mind.
The bolt will go out next week to Dan Armstrong for one of his beautiful bolt handles. A PT&G 3 POS safety is on the way. I plan on installing a external bolt release on it. I've used the Anshutz before. A Jewell or Shilen trigger, The barrel is a Bartlien gain twist, LH twist, with 8 grooves. I normally use Roger Vardy walnut from Australia, but how will it look with a SS barrel. Yes, This one will have adjustable aperture sights.

I would really like to know more about the PT&G 3 position safety. I really like the look of those being a Pre 64 70 fan, but they are also very versatile and robust compared to the stock 700/40X trigger units. And it would eliminate the trigger safety. What's not to like.
How hard are they to install? Something a guy with a little patience could do in his fairly well equipped shop?
Personally, I like walnut and stainless but I admit it is a personal preference and not everyone is on board with my opinions on this.
Which model of aperture sights fit the 40X action?
Bob

I don't think it would be difficult to install the safety. It comes with good instructions. Bob, I will probably adapt whatever I pick. I prefer the Wittic Vaver that has a variety of inserts to screw into the eyepiece.

Why do I get the feeling that down the road you are going to show us pictures of ultra nice 40x rimfires shooting some very tiny groups?
Very nice.
Those who are always shooting off at the mouth usually aren't shooting straight. Build a man a fire and he’ll be warm for a day. Set a man on fire and he’ll be warm for the rest of his life. www.wvcdl.org
