Yep. See my post about a straight wall m700.
Should be together in a few weeks. Waiting on my action to come back from Twisted Barrel.
Once it's back, bed it, clean the stock back up, paint, off to the range.
Bottom metal is Inlet. Stock is ready for a final sanding and primer shot.

No build. Just a 6.5x55 barrel for my Savage 116.

Still thinking.
Its either going to be a 20-222 or a straight up 222.
Can't decide Remington action or a custom.
Probably 22-23", little heavier than factory sporter contour, threaded.
SS fluted.
Up in the air on stock and maker.
May call it "Feather Duster"

Got the scope, rings, lens covers, stock, bottom metal and ammo. Got bored waiting on the action to be available, so I repainted the stock. C'mon zermatt, get off yer ass and get the 17WSM released..... ![[Linked Image from hosting.photobucket.com]](https://hosting.photobucket.com/images/c124/huntsman22/IMG_7288.JPG) ![[Linked Image from hosting.photobucket.com]](https://hosting.photobucket.com/images/c124/huntsman22/IMG_7141.JPG)

Waiting on a half round half octagon barrel from McGowen. Build will be on a modified Ruger #1 action. I choose a classic deer caliber not the most popular but it will be a 300 Savage.

Not a custom build but personalizing my new to me Fieldcraft 308. I just sent the stock off to be dipped and rubberized coated in Kryptek Altitude. The matte clear rubberized coating is great for our wet weather.

What builds are planned for those two beauties?
Just because I am wandering around doesn't mean I am lost.
