I have one of these also.
I have contemplated throwing an after market barrel on this also, but then think about collector value. I would prefer to chop and change my r700 actions.
Got the exact same rifle, exact same scope but in 308 :)
They are a work of art. I am going to take to a PRS comp in the very near future (with a different scope of course)
Agree with the 5.11 range ready bag. I have been running it for 2 yeahs now for single action shooting. Holds plenty of 44mag, 357 and 12 gauge real easy, and has a nice bag for spent brass
I bought a 595 MS second hand only a couple of months ago second hand.... The trigger is damn amazing, and the bolt slides like glass.
First factory rifle I havent spent any money on modifying or changing things
