Big Al Posted March 3, 2017 Report Share Posted March 3, 2017 Finished this guy today, I wasn't sure about the colour scheme at the planning stage but I think it looks great in the flesh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Al Posted March 3, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2017 Nice work, Could I ask what the weight of this rifle is please? Thanks, without the bipod its 9.5lb, lighter or heavier also available to order Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Al Posted March 3, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2017 This one started life as a T3 Lite in .222 Barrel is now a Sassen 8 twist chambered in 223 Remington and throated for the heavier for caliber bullets. The McMillan A3-5 stock is Devcon bedded with fat pillars, barrel channel and mag well are all painted in dark matt grey to match the Devcon. AI floor plate and mag system, standard trigger cleaned, polished and lightened. The action and barrel are painted in Coyote Tan cerakote, the rail, bolt and barrel flutes are armour black satin, threaded 18x1 with the usual invisible cap. A tactical bolt knob with a swept back handle and a Tier One rail finished things off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Murph Posted March 7, 2017 Report Share Posted March 7, 2017 Unusual colour scheme which looks very good. The spiral fluting is really well done. Good job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cock grouse Posted March 13, 2017 Report Share Posted March 13, 2017 How much is a paint job like that Al? Do you do it house? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Al Posted March 13, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2017 How much is a paint job like that Al? Do you do it house? I dont take in paintwork jobs on their own CG as Im an engineer not a painter, I would far rather leave it to an expert who I feel will do a good job. I offer cerakoting only as part of a full rifle build or rebarrel. Paintwork like this will vary from £250-£400 depending on who you use, if the barrel wasn't fluted then it would be cheaper as there was some intricate masking to do.
