been wanting this for a long time, pics

[fastbs]

been wanting to put together a paper-punch n hunt 308 for a while. when i found that i wasn't gonna have to pay in on taxes i sold my old cheap rem 770 243 and let it fly.

It started with a good ebay deal on the scope then...

remington 700 sps varmint 308

EGW HD 20 MOA rail

Burris tactical rings (low)

Bell & Carlson A3 light tactical stock

Grove Tec flush cup swivel mounts

Tab sling

old pivot bipod i've had

USO rail mount anti cant

The scope is a Nikon Monarch 4-16x42 mil dot w/sunshade

last is a little rattle can work and TA DA.

I shot it with the factory stock a few times and got a couple 1" groups shooting off a dog food bag. hopefully sunday i'll get to go re zero and see what happens.

BEFORE

AFTER

the uso anti cant won't fold in with the cover on it. Dang it. i'll just leave the cover off.

of course i have more i want to do to it thanks to you bunch of... never mind. if had never found this site and others i would consider this thing done.

once i get it zeroed again i've got to stretch it out and try some 500yd plus shots. i've never shot past 500. i'm getting gitty thinkin about it.

Wow. Very nice!!

What else are you going to do to it?

[monkeylizard]

I see a rifle in the first 2 pics, but why do the others just show your couch and rug?

[MacGyver]

Nice work! That's a good looking rifle.

what kind of ammo are you shooting?

[fastbs]

what kind of ammo are you shooting?

so far the Hornady 168gr amax is the best i've tried. i've also played with various 150gr soft points; federal, remington, and winchester, cause everywhere around me has them but they didn't group anywhere near the hornady amax.

i shot 7 rushed shots yesterday and got 2 1.25" groups at 100 yds w/ amax, a 4 shot and 3 shot group. i need everybody to leave me alone one afternoon so i can go play.

Nice look'n rifle

I had to put my USO Anticant towards the rear scope ring and there is barely enought room for it to close.

How did you do the skeleton hand on the buttstock? That's a very subtle, but cool addition to the camo job.

google what ever you want a stencil of, click images at the top of google page.

find the one you like

copy past it to word so you can adjust it to the size you want.

print the stencil

cut it out

to make it pop a little you can do a base of black then move the stencil just a hair. then spray the color you want. moving just a bit will leave a black line on one side of the design creating a shadow.

Nice rifle, and a very nice camo job.

Does a rattle can job hold up to cleanings? Been looking at testing it out on one of my 10/22.

I want to paint my AR but I was thinking of going the duracoat route on it.

[fastbs]

most bore solvents (ex butches bore shine) do strip the paint off. then it is just spray paint; easy to touch up. i put a rag over my stock while cleaning to keep solvents and oils off of it.
