New toy

[6.5shooter]

I just thought id share some pictures of my new rifle that I recently picked up.

Its an RPA interceptor which belonged to Mike6.5 on here that I bought off him and had it sent straight to border barrels to screw a new barrel on.

It used to be a 22-250ai and now it wears a 28" t1 profile barrel chambered in 6mmx47 lap with a 1-8 twist.

I have put up a group it shot during load dev with a 105 gr berger vld.

The paint job was done when it belonged to Mike and I must say the pictures that I took with my phone do it no justice, the rifle is like brand new and the paint job is superb.

Was going to send it to Baldie straight from border to have the barrel done too but I might play with it a while first

Thanks guys, to say im pleased with the end result is an understatement. The pictures are taken with my phone and they really dont do it justice.

I bought the rifle off Mike through guntrader, it is my 4th 2nd hand rpa I have bought on it, you can get one for good money now and again if you watch it closely. I am an rpa freak by the way.

I need to do something with the stock and mag on mine. Its abit tatty and needs spraying. Mike made a good job on that spray job.

 

Your right there are some cheap rpa's out there at the moment
