The rifle build is finally complete, and I was greeted to a gun case on my doorstep Saturday with a return address of LongRifles, Inc.

CHECK OUT THE PHOTO GALLERY HERE.

To say that the care in packaging taken by the folks at LRI was superb and left nothing to chance, would still be an understatement. Every piece, down to each piece of the scope rings, was in a ziplock plastic bag, inside a sealed paper bag, and wrapped in at least twice as much bubble wrap as would get the job down. The case itself was sealed with duct tape and had a zip tie through each of the 6 hasps for locks. Needless to say, everything arrived to perfect condition. The 2-day shipping was a bonus too!

And thanks to everyone who has come across from The Hide and elsewhere to follow along, you guys have helped me with this build immensely. Thank You to Chad and company at LongRifles, Inc., Branden at Custom Gun Coatings, Tom at Manner’s Stocks, Scott at Liberty Optics, Greg at Southern Precision, Eric at EuroOptic, and everyone else that built or sold me a piece of this build, and to the anonymous forum members whose opinions and reviews helped shape this build.

Very nice looking rifle and enjoyed the excellent write up of the different segments of your build. Not sure of the intended use of your rifle but would be very interested in your take of the G2 as a hunting reticle.
 
Thanks bud. It may see a day or two from a high ridge in Texas hill country looking for a whitetail but this is a heavy rig and won't be going on any hikes in the mountains. If I get around to finding a place to shoot some predators, I'll have a chance then too and will share any thoughts on the blog.

Thanks again for reading along.
