Pretty excited about this as it turned out better than I expected.

I asked Shaen to Cerakote the bbl to match the Bighorn Origins Salt Bath Nitride coating and I'll be damned if he didn't absolutely nail it.

Looks fantastic if not better!

Only ran 5 fire form rounds down it so far as it showed up just prior to our 9 day late season deer hunt.

The .22 Creedmoor wasn't digging the McWalnut and with deer season fast approaching, I pulled it and put it back in the McM Hunter Edge fill that it was bedded to.

I have 100 rounds of 88/Lever form loads ready to go and the kids left just enough milk in the bottom of the jug to half fill a bowl of cereal almost.

You could say I got things covered.

Fast becoming a favorite.

Just glad I didn’t go home owing anybody money (cough, darrenk75b, cough)!
