[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 170090, member: 10"] Sorry for not getting you some pics to stare at for those shipping days, as you know, it was a finish, test, test again and ship type of deal with not much time to spare to get you the rifle in time hopefully for your hunt. I assure you, if your a rifle nut, when you unpack that rifle, you will just have to set it up on the bipod for a while and just look at it. I build alot of rifles, yours is easily in my top three favorite rifles. For everyone else on the board, pictures will give you an idea on what the rifle looks like but until you get to see them in person, pictures will not do this rifle justice. For those that are curious about the two sets of NF rings we had to use. The reason is because we have learned that the 5 port slab brakes are so effective the negative G-forces are significant enough to make a single set of scope rings slide back and forth between the rail slots. With two sets of rings, one set is positioned forward to control recoil energy and one set is positioned to the rear to control the extreme deceleration created by the muzzle brake. Also, the rail base has to be converted as well. It comes with four 8-40 flat bottom seat screws. That just does not cut it with this chambering and muzzle brake. As such, for the BAT rails, I convert them for 6 10-32 bolts with tapered seat heads to offer shear force control. This rifle is build to the proverbial nuts from the muzzle brake to the recoil pad and it shows it!!! Hope you enjoy your rifle!!!! I assure you 1000 yards will be like kicking your dog, in fact you better have a spotter because the 300 gr SMK gets to 1K so **** fast that even with the low recoil in this rifle, you will have a hard time seeing your bullets hit, its not a recoil problem, its an extremely short time of flight problem!!! Have fun, look forward to the pics and comments. Again, sorry for the delays in your rifle and I appreciate all your patients. Kirby Allen(50) [/QUOTE]
