Been working on this rifle since mid December. Finally together.
USMC M40 barrelled action left over from contract (With U.S. stamps!!) , 40x stock, Vortex Viper scope and Turner Saddlery sling.
I do not like shooting from the bench so once zero'd I was not shooting as well but a 1" - 1.25" group for the first time in 15 years is acceptable (For now).
She's a shooter though, just need to find a load that this rifle will like and get some more range time.

Yes!
It's not as unique, just had to know where to go (Pacific tool in Oregon has them). Was $1150 out the door for the barrelled action, technically is 40x per the contract and stamped as such. I "believe" I got the 9th post-contract action based on m y serial number.
