Sent my Kimber Montana .308 to Karnis for a nice paint job and a little skim bedding! ![[Linked Image]](http://i261.photobucket.com/albums/ii60/piwonka/IMG_3231.jpg) Getting her dialed in. ![[Linked Image]](http://i261.photobucket.com/albums/ii60/piwonka/IMG_7642.jpg) Should of stopped at three! Not to bad for getting her sighted in and shooting a couple groups in the crazy wind with me behind the wheel!! My only two groups shot today at a hundred yards , while playing around with factory Hornady 168 a-max. Can't wait to have a little more time to really put some rounds through it. ![[Linked Image]](http://i261.photobucket.com/albums/ii60/piwonka/IMG_8295.jpg)

Very nice paint job. That Karnis is quite the magician around here!
So I suppose now we going to start with wagon wheel/rifle photos?

I like the paint a whole lot better than the pale gray. Nice job. Good shooting too.

My wife now wants her .243 montana painted up, by karnis, which it also gives me a time to send in her zeiss conquest 3-9 in for repair, as it takes hercules to move the dam power ring! That flier round was caused by me farting at the same time the bullet was exiting the barrel, when you time it just right, it has the same effect on that one bullet kind of like a bad crown!

Nice rig. He does do a fine job, he's done a couple of my stocks. Here's the latest: ![[Linked Image]](http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b33/karnis/09178c43.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b33/karnis/3a27b721.jpg) [/quote]

My custom paint job by Karnis. ![[Linked Image]](http://i1089.photobucket.com/albums/i345/AcornRidgePhotos/Mobile/CAM00238.jpg) You can see what it looked like before, under the rest. ![[Linked Image]](http://i1089.photobucket.com/albums/i345/AcornRidgePhotos/DSCN2740.jpg)

Nice paint jobs! He also noticed the barrel thread flat through the base screw hole, as my talley base screw was bottoming out! Had to shave a little off! My wifes .243 montana talley base screw is the correct lenght as i checked when getting it ready for a paint job by karnis!
