Thats a sweet rifle.

Nice stick. The stock is a T3 though correct? Let us know how recoil is. That seems like a light rifle for the caliber, but the Lawton brake is very effective!

Look forward to a range report

Your rifle is to guns what monster trucks are to pickups. I assume you're going to be able to really stretch that gun's legs out in Wyoming. Nice stick!

Sweet looking rig. I can't wat to hear how it performs. Is your bolt not closed all the way or does the handle just stick out like that?

Yes sir. Slight oversight at picture time. It actually closes all the way down.
