Well done Karl, Nice touch, But, thinking maybe I should have had him flute the bolt knob also? It ever ends……………..

I wouldn't fret the bolt knob, as the bolt handles are extremely easy to replace on your own and there are many options to choose from out there that would go well with your new fluted bolt. Nice looking rifle there. Originally Posted by raybass I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style.

Just picked up one myself in same make/model/cartridge, but only shot one box of the cheapest factory ammo to make sure it functions and shows some promise, before it got dropped off for a barrel cut and thread.

No I think the real issue is you can't spell creedmoor. I used LRI yrs ago and realized it was a waste of money, first hand. But keep showing your azz.
