OK, all parts are gathered up neatly organized in a large plastic clear tote, action and bolt just back from Penrod Precision, and now I have to wait 8-10 weeks for barrel. ARGHHHHH!
How do you pass this time away without going nuts fidgeting looking at each part 10,000 times? I refrain from holding trued action to protect the new blueing but even that is difficult.
I have all the powder, brass, primers and bullets I need for this build (.270 Win 1:8 5R 27" Light Palma) throated to allow longer heavier higher BC bullets so nothing I can do there.
I had right shoulder surgery 2 weeks ago so cannot even shoot to pass the time away. You can only load so much for other rifles and they are all good there.
Cleaned and organized loading bench 10X so far.
Cleaned and organized my rifle cleaning table 10X so far.
When I am fishing I am thinking of the build so even that doesn't clear my mind. I hope this build turns out half as good as I envision since it is one I am really truly excited to see how it performs.
Am I only one like this?
