attempt

Here goes... Started out life as an SPS Varmint. Had the action Blueprinted, the super-cool bolt-knob added, got a Timney Trigger that was upgraded from Timney (the original came from this site used at a very good deal), a Broughton barrel finished by GAP, an HS stock, and a Falcon Menace...
