my first stick

[p8re8]

just got my first gun together. i'd like to say thank you to everyone here who directly and indirectly helped with my decisions. it's a remmy 700 .308 with oversize bolt, seka extractor. pillar bed in a mcmillan a-5 with badger bdm, obermeyer 26"fluted barrel that 300 below cryo'd. seekins base and rings and a leupold 6.5-20x50 illum mil dot scope. i've only begun the break-in but it sure feels good. going tomarrow to work on finishing break in and start zeroing.

Re: my first stick

it's krylon rattle can, i did my m-1 with it and i like it. cut out a few stencils and buy a laundry bag to "digitize", it's cheap, fun to do and easy to touch up.

Re: my first stick

in my excitement to actually link a pic here, i forgot to mention my smith, gary growe from columbus, in. if you need gunwork done in central indiana, gary is first rate . he's done handgun and rifle work for me and always exceeds my expectations.

Beautiful job on the camo, and great choice of components. How does she shoot? And how on earth did you find an Obermeyer barrel?

Re: my first stick

thanks on the camo. i'm just starting to break her in but it feels good so far. as for the barrel, call Boots and wait. i think i got lucky, i waited four months.
