I have been eye-balling these rifles for a while now but all I have been seeing is the wood stocked versions.
very nice wood too.
many of them are holy cow super nice chunks of wood. [the stocks in the pictures are what is on the store shelves and some are nicer[
but I have a tendency to shoot from rock piles and to scratch the dickens out of the bottom of my rifles no matter how nice I try to treat them.
so I have been holding out waiting for the synthetic stock.
I finally got the LGS to get one in.
I told them if they get one in, in either 308 or 30-06 and I'd take it.
and they finally did.
a no nonsense rig, I had to buy the bases and rings [takes model 700 stuff] extra.
I topped it off with a no nonsense 3.5X10X42 vortex diamond back scope on sale for under 200 bucks.
and I got the rifle for under 700.00 so it wasn't too bad.
good thing I got that bucket of Berger J-4 jackets and 2 boxes of sierra match jackets sitting in the garage I think I got a use for them.
now I have to cast up some cores and do some measuring/weighing and squishing.
take a look.
