Ok guys, here it is after about a year of building.It's a Remington 541T heavy barrel,Loopy 4.5-14x40,Manners MC4 that was custom fitted by the man himself, and oversize bolt handle.Initial shooting has netted holes touching at 50 and 75 yds.Will be stretching it out further when I get the time, but so far this thing ROCKS and was worth every penny ( yeah, lots)and all the wait.

Re: New training rifle finished, pics up!

What did the stock w/ custom inletting run you? More importantly is it now a standard inletting? I've got a 540 and a 581 that are up for just such a stock.

Cheers,

Doc

Looks great. I am dying to put one together for myself but have another project going that should (fingers crossed) be finished and paid for within a month. Then have to rebuild my fun stash before I can get one.

Jealous - that's me.
