[QUOTE="ducky, post: 2257098, member: 94420"] So I finally found a M700 in .308 about 1981 vintage for $500. You only get to see the good side as that's all the pictures I got from the seller. On the bad side the stock is missing about 2" of the toe, looks like either the sling stud or recoil pad screw was the culprit. [Img]https://i.postimg.cc/pXYHBGkT/IMG-3132.jpg[/img] So I ran this off to my GS to get the barrel cut down to 18" and threaded for my ASR muzzle break to mout my Omega 300 suppressor. While it was at the GS I started looking for a stock. I finally settled on a Greyboe Trekker, and was pleasantly surprised when it came in within ½ ounce of advertised 23 ounce weight and under $600 after some discounts.

I haven't tried TT before but hear good things, so why not? [img]https://i.postimg.cc/K8zH0QCn/20210712-190340.jpg[/img] Then I had to find an optic, and I found this little gem for just under $700. NF 3-10X42 SHV MOAR reticle. My first NF optic, probably won't be the last. [Img]https://i.postimg.cc/9FLP2vM7/20210806-090752.jpg[/img] All my parts except scope are still at my GS. I just don't have time to bed the rifle myself with work and pre elk season scouting trips. I hope to start putting this rifle through the paces next week.
