I finally got everything back from being hard anodized. Laid up the carbon fiber for my cheekpiece and duracoated everything flat dark earth. Here are the pic's. The stock wound up weighing 4.4lbs complete.

Re: Self built chassis is done!

Oh dear god.... I read your other thread and this is impressive to say the least especially since it was done on a manual vertical. It makes me a little sad, however to know there is not a CAD/CAM program out there so one of these bad boys can be easily duplicated. Truly one of a kind. Congrats.
 
Re: Self built chassis is done!

Great job! I like one off jobs. You have the only one in the world and the pride of doing it yourself!

What is the total weight of gun with scope and bipod?

257,

Excellent project. Your ability to visualize the end product then use tools to reproduce that image is very cool. What is your background, are you a machinist by trade? Weight sounds like a very handy rifle. How does it feel for balance and position shooting? Let us know how it performs at the range and again nice job. Thank you for sharing your work and taking the time to post.

Well done.

You let form follow function(as you should have) and still have a beautiful stock.

Looks a lot like the TacMod stock with some of the parts in carbon fiber. It is on the market. I think you can buy one from Surgeon Rifles for a mere $1,400.

Hell of a nice job on the stock man!
 
Re: Self built chassis is done!

Well done! I only wish that I had the skills, training, and resources to do something like that.
