[QUOTE="Don A Parsons, post: 1238278, member: 97414"] That's awesome AZ, how true on the modifications on most rifles are as you mentioned,,, Remington, Savage, Ruger, Wheatherby, Tika and others see the owners tinkering with them too get better accuracy. We could imagine that lower end frugal budget firearms need a bit more of work overs, but that is too be expected. My 2 pals up in here in Western Canada "now retired" from competition shooting did 80 to 90% of their own work overs, lots of Remingtons, Old British 303's, war surplus Muaser's, Parker-Hails, as well as every other brand before entering the stages of competitions around the world. Long time Pal C Ganter took on the challange in Australia horizontal, pron, sitting, kneeling, standing at the 1000 yard match too qualify 219th out of the best 1600 that took part. C Ganter built a simple 303 British chambered too 308 that he self funded him self, "the whole" build and trip on his dime. He was and is well excepted into the group as a world class shooter since he competed on the world stage for over 20 + years in Canada, England, Europe, Australia, as well as 5 too 7 other countries. He still says too this day that all well dialed in rifles with time and effort can go into competition, it is the hands of the shooter that brings it together that makes it happen. If I could afford $16 too $20.000 dollar rifle, then a large percentage of the shoots would be taken care of, but the majority of us folks have too compete with less, this is where us home folk shine. Limited budget firearm, limited funds on after market parts, and lives working too pay for it all on top of getting time to shoot and change things along the way. C Ganter, my self and others live for this challange, its something too do along the way. Maybe the time will come when I too limit my projects too none, but the way it looks is that this project is soon too get under way since the price is frugal and after market stuff is readily available Hope too game plan this winter on a solid build here in the Northern America's. Western Canada Pal Don [/QUOTE]
