[QUOTE="CaptnC, post: 1337307, member: 101755"] Here is one I finished a few weeks ago. I'm not a big fan of 308, but i got the barrel for $90.00 from Midway. I have done all the work on this one. This action used to be in the stock the 300WM now calls home. I did all the work my self. I welded the tactical knob in place I made the bottom metal from a non-hinged 98 mauser to use AI mags, I head spaced the chamber, D&T the scope mount holes. And believe it or not is shoots very very good for being a bench top build. Other than the mig welder that fanciest tool I used was a coreless drill...oh and a hand grinder. The stock is from Richards Microfit. I removed forward most part of the "roll over" cheek piece (on the left side of the stock) so it can easily be shot left handed. I'm not but I have one son-in-law who is. Anyway it is a safe queen until I rebarrel it it to 6.5 Creedmoor...I'm going to buy a reamer so I can still say I did the entire build myself with hand tools. [ATTACH=full]80016[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
