baldie Posted October 17, 2008 Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 Here,s one i finished yesterday, unusual in that its sat in the new colour desert tan AICS stock. This is a surgeon 6.5x47 lapua, in a folder [unusual again], fitted with a border archer t2 profile barrel. It sports a muzzle mounted a-tec, fully bedded, Jackson trigger etc, and its finished in a lovely shade of flat earth duracoat, by Kal. The pictures dont do it justice, i think its the nicest rifle i,ve built yet, and i think its new owner will love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elwood Posted October 17, 2008 Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 Nice rifle, shame about the strides! I think the bottom picture does it justice. What does it weigh Dave? this is the close to the specs for my 7WSM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snap_shot Posted October 17, 2008 Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 it looks the business, by the way did you get sick on yer overcoat.............. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baldie Posted October 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 I thought that would give you a boner, Elwood I dont know what it weights mate. I have two rifle weights in my mind, sporter , obviously carryable..... and guns like this......Its not light, due to the barrel, and you wouldn,t want to stalk with it.......unless the intended target was shooting back.... That patch of "sick" is devcon snapshot and its like a teenagers duvet........stiff ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jager SA Posted October 17, 2008 Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 Stunning looking rifle but my eyes keep getting drawn to Dave's trousers, and not the crutch area! Well you can stop thinking about Flectarn...its the bain of my life...and everyone wants it...and the coating! Its one of the nicest patterns I do actually and it looks the business when finished. Mr AI likes it very much, that and GAP Digital anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
