Photos Finally coming together

[Charlie Papa]

It's taken awhile, but I've finally got my 260 going, and close to finding that "perfect" load, too. So far, my best short-range group has been 1.065" 5 shots at 300 yards.

For anyone interested, it's a Surgeon 591 and bottom metal, H-S Precision 3-color desert stock, Krieger fluted stainless 1-8.0 twist 40X contour, all put together by Jered at APA, who does some damn fine work!

Re: Finally coming together

Looks great. I have always loved those stocks!

Re: Finally coming together

Thanks! I like it, too, especially since I have a PSS and a 5R in a PSS stock, so it keeps them all feeling pretty similar.

Re: Finally coming together

Nice set up and I really like that model stock. Im in the market for one of them myself. Did you spray the camo over the factory base?

No, but I think that's all they do from the factory. Looks like it's ambushed right over the desert sand with black web. Looks good, though.

Thanks, guys. It has 10 flutes. I didn't really specify, that's just how Krieger sent it

Re: Finally coming together

Chad, Will you be at K&M in two weeks?

That rifle is a shooter!

 

[Charlie Papa]

Re: Finally coming together

Yes, Joe. Once I get some more ammo loaded, I'll be ready. See you in a couple of weeks!
