Lookin good there!!!......................18" barrel???? I like it already!!! Easy to carry, is lighter and faster to the target than a full sized rig..... Great rifle for the wife!........ :wink:

The ATI handle and the back side of the action needed some file work but it was a easy install, may not look the best but I like the ball end on the handle it is real easy to work. Shot it today with some 145 speer BT with 49gr IMR 4350 and shot a 3 shot group (my 50 yard get it on paper) and only had two holes????? I can't figure out for the life of me where that third round went???? :grin: I'll post the target pic in the morning. Thanks for the comments, believe me it ain't as pretty as the pics but still looks decent.

Is that a Richards Micro-fit Stock? Very nice lookin rifle! Where'd you find the parts? CL

 

[Black-tailed bandit]

it is a old h&r stock that I got in a trade. I rasped of much of the rollover, and did a lot of finishing work on it. I hear that micro fir stock are good too I'm going to buy one for my moms 257 and dad and I will build her a nice one this summer.
Here is a pic of the group I shot. I will get more testing done at 100 and 200 once we get some range work done, here in NW Oregon we have had a rough winter.
