This is going to be hunting rifle; still a few parts left till it'll go bang.

well i wanted to do a stevens/savage action and aftermarket barrel but found a deal on a (looks unfired but moved around a lot) standard rem 700 sps in 308. it's at the smith's getting the oe barrel cut to 20" and recrowned.
B&C medailist sporter stock
monarch 3-12x42
egw HD 20 moa base
burris rings

the smith is backed up so it looks like it may be 2-3 weeks till i get the barrel/action back
 
Re: hunting rifle getting there

smith just called this evening and said he got board fixing broken stuff so he put mine on the chopping block. SWEET!!

asked if there was a crown preference, told him as long as it's recessed to do his magic.

if the rest of the parts show up it may go bang late next week.

Nice. Always good to have a nice hunting rifle in the stable. Make sure you post pics when you get it done.

By the way, interesting gun rest (your glock).
