I very rarely post anything,I just read and soak up info but I just finished this so I thought I would post. I had GA precision cut the barrel from 26 to 20 and install the bolt knob ,Chad Dixon fluted the bolt.
Seekins A.I bottom metal
Badger 20 moa base and Max 50 rings
Vortex Viper PST 4-16 mil/mil
flush cups on left side
Atlas rail front and rear
B&C stock,bedded with Devcon,textured with Marine-Tex
All stock work including paint and the inlet for the bottom metal was done by me.

Great looking rifle, and really looks to be a shooter. Now go have fun with it.

I,m happy with the stock,inletting was a challenge due to the aluminum skeleton,bedding was a piece of cake,just skim bedded it.
 
Re: .308 done,what do you think?

Not bad at all. I like the paint job you did. The B&C stocks are great for what you pay for them.
 
Re: .308 done,what do you think?

I really like that paint job as well. Great looking rifle sir!
 
Re: .308 done,what do you think?

wow, that is a different paint job, very cool and unique, looks like it shoots as good as it looks
Congrats.
 
Re: .308 done,what do you think?

Very nice paint job, I really like the pattern. I have been looking for a pattern for my rifle. Great Job!!
 
Re: .308 done,what do you think?

Sort of venturing off on a side bar here . . .

. . . as far as camouflage goes, what do you guys think is the more acceptable pattern from a military stand point?

1: A micro pattern (i.e. If one lays the weapon down in the surrounding environment it automatically blends)

or . . .

2: A macro patter (i.e. If one is in an environment the pattern of the weapon would replicate the environment to such an extent that it would probably go undetected?
 
Re: .308 done,what do you think?

look up Propper International A-TACS. That's pretty much as good as you can get. Its both micro and macro rolled into a blob of one. they make digi's look like graph paper.
 
Re: .308 done,what do you think?

Love the way it shoots, paint job...not so much. Shoot it, enjoy it!
 
Re: .308 done,what do you think?

Nice shooting there. Sub MOA cant be bad at all

Re: .308 done,what do you think?

By any chance was your choice of pattern influenced by one of these?

The pattern just reminds me of a python I had. Awesome paint scheme!
 
Re: .308 done,what do you think?

A+ on the paint job. Different is good. Looks like it shoots for you as well.
 
Re: .308 done,what do you think?

Best paint job I've ever seen. Wow...when I decide to paint my rifle, I'm sending it to you.
 
Re: .308 done,what do you think?

is the atlas rail the picatinny rail on the bottom of the forend and bottom of the butt stock? where did you get it?
 
Re: .308 done,what do you think?

Quite the DIY project you did there...turned out real good!
 
Re: .308 done,what do you think?

my initial thought of that paint job also reminded me of a type of python.
 
Re: .308 done,what do you think?

Looks great. Very nice work on the stock.
