Will have a blank and barrel to trace at The Plumber's,so will only need to get home box it up and ship it out. I generally don't have to wait more than a day or two on a build.................

Mine has a Broughton 1:7.3" twist barrel, contour matches the factory barrel through the shank, but tapered to .6" at 24". It's topped with a Nightforce 2.5-10x32 with Zero Stop in Nightforce Ultralight rings on top of a Talley 20MOA base. Weighs 7lbs on the nose (minus the bipod). Eddie Fosnaugh did the cerakote. I did have Eddie slap one of Karl's shifters on there which I really like. Need to get a picture of it.

OP Big Stick Campfire Kahuna Joined: Jan 2001 Posts: 58,244 Paradise,Alaska	Got home from work today and it was awaiting my arrival. The 105'Max kisses square at 2.320" and they make 2675fps easily. Shots #6,7 and 8 out of the virgin spout touched at 100yds and that was good enough for load development. .0025" constriction is doing nice things. 2.320" kiss. 20MOA rail is nice for ring spacing...though it only leaves 23.7 Mils from a 200yd zero. The windshield will reach 1000yds easily and all out a mile is a breeze. A 75MOA rail would be nice. Will whistle 50rds through it tomorrow to see WTF at 1000 and beyond. The 20.3" contour dupe handles nicely and there's promise in the parcel. I reckon Critters will be giddy to pose with it. Will paint it,after it's scratched up enough for it to adhere...which'll be no later than noon tomorrow...........(grin) A Rabid addendum: I'll Steel Wool wool moly away for COAL pics,as it seems to connect more dots for folks. The moly rounds are live. Decided to load an extry 50rds this morning and perhaps shim the box,so it is more fitting of the modest COAL. Pre-Rut this pass,gearing up for the 3wks of The November To Remember. Time to be Calling/Rattling now and keeping one's nose in the wind. Can see myself getting sidetracked,dredging Chrome,as it is ON. Have a few more DBM's to install and some Kenworth shifters to screw on too.

[img]http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/1280x1024q90/912/e3BOpY.jpg[/img] Have a coupla more FF glass enroute,so it's gonna be a busy R&R...just like always................(grin)
