    Got my rifle back from them this spring and turned right around and sent the stock off to Brandon at Custom Gun Coatings . After getting the stock back from Brandon the gun has basically sat in my gun safe due to work and health issues .
    Finally got to get it out and do some real load development on it and was I ever amazed.

    Never in my wildest dreams would I have thought I own a rifle that would shoot like this. Granted luck was involved as it was one of those days I felt I was shooting exceptionally well.

    Thanks once again Brad and Keith you guys built me one hell of a rifle.
     
    Very nice! I'm glad to see so may people happy with their work. I'm sending my bolt their way tomorrow. than the barreled action over the winter.. Looks like they made you a real tack driver..
