whackin' off

[gopherslayer]

Gave the 308 a makeover. Way more mobile and convenient. Consistency seems to have been improved.

Before. SPS-V 26" B&C adj. stock. IOR 4-14x50.

After SPS-V 20" B&C varmint stock. CDI bottom metal IOR 4-14x50.

45.5gr Varget 168 HornyDaddy BTHP BR-2 sparkler Remmy case. 10 shots no rest time. Just reload and squeeze.

Nice looking rig, before and after.

Any idea what the rifle weighs in this config?

Re: whackin' off

Before it weighed 18lbs with bipod.
New stock weighs 3.25# less. 6" less barrel and no bipod mount. I would think under 12. Probably less. I'm thinking a little lighter scope and ring combo maybe SS 3-9x42 would be sweet.

Off the bench I can't tell a difference in recoil from before to after.

You seem to be on the way to what Russians called "Obrez".

Just take 6"-10" off the butt (rifle-butt I mean

).

Re: whackin' off

nice rig.

how do you like the new stock compared to the old one?
significant difference in stability or fit?
were your groups tighter afterward the barrel / stock swap?
