Does it shoot tiny little bug holes ?

Rwire25: That indeed is a COOL looking Rifle! I hope it shoots as good as it looks. That stock is pretty radical looking (in my mind) - my only concern with your Rifle is the forearm of that stock - I need a wide flattish forearm for 95% pf my rimfire Hunting/shooting needs. Enjoy and thanks for sharing. Hold into the wind VarmintGuy

howdy all thanks for the kind words this has been a hoot to work on pretty strait forward currently working on fitting up an adjustable butt pad with 1/4'' aluminum spacer, Been wanting to build one for yrs already had the 10/22 but was on ebay one day ran across the stock grabed it and snowballed from there, Ive had the receiver threaded along with the barrel to screw togather, instead of the v block but doing that lost the org Benz chamber was rechambered with a target match chamber, along with the adjustable butt pad need to bed it all nice n tite. And I'm also getting ready for caderact surgery in two weeks start on the rite one then move over to the left so my vision kinda sucks but hasn't stop me from tryin it out and she shows promise in making the one raged hole at 50yrds, I have a bench set up in the back ranged at 57yrds and the 8.5x25 Eraticator helps but look forward to seeing clearly again. VarmitGuy ive had the same thought of maybe moving to a more target friendly stock but i like it to much lol

They make things real easy to snag up on..... But hey, couldn't be much worse than that 'wart' on the ocular.
I still think you should run the sunshade clear out to the end of the barrel, in keeping up with the 'futuristic', more ultimate-er, theme thing you got going on. And add lots of levers. They're cool.

I'm thinking more along the lines of a more bench gun and the occasionaly pinch a crow, but I have a Mag Research 22lr for my ltweight hunter plinker never even gave the futuristic a thought its made me want to atleast put my 243 in a thumbhole stock

Really this all started to be a nice accurate all allarounder first seen the stock never gave it a second thought, and another thing its a CWP Causenau wood prod which they no longer make Rifle stocks at this time and so far imo is nicer than a Boyds or a Socky of similar style. then I started looking at barrels and came across the Shaw said that's the one, when I assembled them barley had enough adj at 50yrds investigated found excess clearance between receiver and barrel tenon found my way to RFC and found a smith on the site Randy from CPC couldn't go wrong for the work he does for the money he threaded the barrel and receiver togather set back and rechambered in target match, smoothed the bolt and gave it a good trigger job my paper skills are lacking as I have caderact surgery next wed for my rt eye then in couple weeks do the left one just typing is a PITA cant keep up with all the misspeeled words lol but about ready to give it to someone to start dialing it in

Not necessarily my taste which leans more toward a 54 action Anschultz sporter with Leupold 6.5-20, but I certainly wouldn't turn it down at a good price. Glad you found something you really like.
