Didn't someone on here replace their's with a Sako 85 shoud.
Whatever a 7x57 can do a 270 can do better.
True fair chase is you in the woods buttnaked with nothing but your finger nails and teeth.
If you'e fixin' to put a hole in something, make it a hole to remember.

I think Sammo replaced his A7 shroud with one of those "new improved" ones.
He doesn't have much else to do, except shovel snow.
I replace valve cover gaskets every 50K, if they don't need them sooner...

Sam did replace his with a regular Mod 85 shroud, he said it went right on easy as pie, he put up a picture of it and it looked great, I would do this if I bought an A7...........Hillbilly.

He doesn't have much else to do, except shovel snow. We got blasted pretty good last night. Needed 4x4 to get out of the driveway, country was drift central. Got home about 30 minutes ago, took a hot shower and found some whiskey! Brownells had 'em this Summer.

Oh yeah Craig it was a slick deal, looks better and is solid steel unlike the plastic covered version.
I might spray paint the bottom plastic silver next.....grin

Takes less than a minute to swap, turn the old one off, turn the new one on.
Tape is redneck palm swell.
