Lithgow LA101 in a Bravo

[Gtar]

I've got a couple of rifles in Bravo stocks and thought it would be nice to have a matching 22LR. It's made it a cool little rifle.

I machined a new backbone to suit and an Arca rail, it just needs a long action forend shell for a bit more clearance on the mag release lever.

Yep, I made a whole new backbone to suit the Lithgow. I could swap it back to a Remington 700 in 10 minutes with a couple of allen keys. I had to trim the front plastic a bit to fit the mag release but a long action forend would fix that.

Too bad those LA101s are north of $1200 US and still need a suitable stock for precision work.

By them time you're into one with a suitable stock, you could almost buy two Bergara B-14Rs or a B-14R barreled action, a Bravo Chassis, and a decent scope, base, and rings.

No shit? I would have thought they would be cheaper in 'straya.

little over $1300 here from memory

 

[Gtar]

The best price I've seen is AU$1175 (US$850) here for the synthetic stocked Lithgow. I'd like a Bergara when they get the left hand ones here. I might have a look at using the Bergara magazines, that's one thing that could be an improvement.

$1800+ for the bergara

Nah, I made it to suit. I'll probably change to an Arca bipod mount as well once I get the chance to make some clamps.

nice

 

[Swami]

Damn, that's nice! I wish they'd just make one. Zero options for 101 chasis!

The spigot mounts that ICE / MANAEL make for the Warwick WFA1 work on KRG. Done it a few times.

*Disclosure I own ICEng.
