Re: My almost finished project

Ive shot probably 200+ rounds through it but havent shot it on a bench on a calm day so im only gettin 1 in groups with it, but have killed plenty of coyotes and prarie dogs, one i shot at 440 yards. Only thing i would want to add now is a matte black coating on the action and barrel and maybe later a fluted barrel when this one wears out.
 
Re: My almost finished project

Great job on the paint. Wish I could paint that well.
 
Re: My almost finished project

Its easy, just lay down the green base coat and lay a bunch of hay and grass down till you can barely see the stock, then spray the tan through the hay at one angle and when you pull the hay off...tada looks like that.
 
Re: My almost finished project

Heres a group i shot with it fresh out of the box before any upgrades installed. Pretty good out of the box accuracy at 100 yd.

Re: My almost finished project

This thread is worthless without pics of the dead yotes and pdogs. Seriously though, that's a REALLY sweet group outta the box. Now go takes some more pics of those kills!
