and
A 6.5-20x50 Target turret Zeiss Conquest MC HT (Bikini covers, boxed and paperwork included)
Scope has slight mark on the optical coating on the objective lens that appears to be a light scuff but it is not visible in the sight picture other than a tiny little spec on the very outside of the FOV, again, you would have to be looking for it.

Hi steve

Standard sporter barrel

Shows no signs of walking shots even after strings of maybe 6-10 shots

 

I have added some clearance to the stock barrel channel and reoiled the wood below the barrel

 

Bedding is via two factory metal units, round ring at the rear and a larger l shaped plate that fits into the stock and a void that the action locks into.

 

No plastic on this, bottom metal and trigger guard are all solid steel.

Locks up tight when torqued up..
