It will look really good with a Schmidt & Bender sitting on top!!!

Cool. Who did the tig welding on the handle?

I was inspired by Mark once.Till he wanted me to build this........big.......grin.

Hi dave7mm

How did you get the fishnet stocking effect on the stock?

Please don't be embarrassed to post the truth. If you put an old pair of your fishnet stockings on it before spraypainting, please say so!

STW: Killer cartridge

You beat me to it.. I figured it must be a 'female' stock...

Scarry as heck that I could inspire anything, but I am big time glad to see you did the 6 aught 6 thingy.

I've been using mine for years and just think the world of it.

Fact is this afternoon my wife will be toting it around in search of a black bruin.

Can't wait to hear how it works for you, I do believe it'll be very user friendly and yet very good at doing its work on game.

MRD,
My current goto is a HTG M700 270WCF Hart 24 inch.

I've been a happy GP/HTG user since the mid 80s.So the Hi-Tech is alittle different.It does fit me pretty well.
Pretty much always been a high speed fan and hearing you talk about mulies and elk and every other nanamil under the sun I figured I could't go wrong.It will more than likely recieve a LARGE azz S&B for pig killen.But Ill most likely tone it down for the local freezer does.Its kinda a nice set up as it can be made into a dandy carry rifle.
Ill do a short break in and then run it over my Model 33 and see whats cooken.Might just have to run a few 55g ballistic tips on a few woodchucks for testing purposes, you know,just to make sure .
I had a local tool and die maker/gun nut,do all the work.
Inspired by Mark R Dobrenski.

Nice looking rifle. How DID you finish that stock??

Scope mounted and about half broke in.

The groups left to right.These are one shot and then clean.
The very first shot is on the left circle low.6 clicks up and 1 click to the right and then shot the rest.The first is a .45 the second is a .7 and the last was a 1.1 .Still just blowing cases I can't sat im unhappy.Good enough to hunt with out of the gate.
Im blowing cases with a 65g Rubright with 51g og Norma N204
I like.

You guys have a great weekend.
