DF: Very nicely done. The ejector notch patch is barely visible after your refinish and the re-cut checkering turned out quite nice. I guess the McM stock housing the 1640 I posted about is quite heavy, which surprises me, but I'm no McMillan expert.
Thanks,
It was a neat project. The gun is very light, so I loaded 130 gr Hornady bullets (not the varmint version), which have proven to be great WT killers. At 3,100 fps, they hit hard and exit with lots of internal damage. I mostly chest shoot deer to save the meat. For local hunting, no real long shots, it's about ideal. I have some 125 NAB's I want to try.
I have other rifles to reach way out.
