baldie Posted August 24, 2011 Report Share Posted August 24, 2011 This looks like the Hulk....without the denims.... This is the latest in a line of rifles built for a member here, who is a very good customer. Never moans, never rushes you, and doesn,t pester your bloody life out with slack questions. I think he may be an apprentice yorkshireman , because he keeps having .260,s built....because he wont spend on new dies..... Anyway, here is the gun. Its a Valkyrie repeater action with a .20 moa rail. Barrel is a truflite, and fluted here, finished at 30" [ i think] and a heavy varmint profile. Barrel is screwcut 5/8" x 18 tpi with a spigot for the ASE utra mod, and invisible thread cap Stock is a McMillan A5 fitted with my bottom metal to take AICS mags. Stock is pillar and Devcon bedded. The barrelled action is in Olive Drab Duracoat and the trigger unit is a jewell. Hope you like it Dave, and thanks for allowing me to share the pics before you get your hands on it !

Mike357 Posted August 24, 2011 Report Share Posted August 24, 2011 Fantastic job Dave. It kills me seeing these gorgeous rifles knowing that I just can't afford getting the VSSF down to you, however, 1st step is underway at the end of the month with the variation for a 260.

DaveT Posted August 30, 2011 Report Share Posted August 30, 2011 I picked this up from Dave today..... even better in the flesh! My thanks to Dave for spending a good couple of hours with me on related reloading matters and for generally being a bloody good bloke (and gunsmith!) I have GOT to stay away from there as its like letting a kid loose in a candy shop and I just want to order something else each time I visit.... having seen and handled his mean-looking AR10 it could be something along those lines next!
