Very nice bud :victory:

 

Is that a MacMillan A4 Tactical stock... i like the marbling, what percentages of colour did you go for? Looks like a mean bit of kit and with nice groups like that you'll have a cracker! Keep us up to date with your exploits. :gunsmilie:

VERY VERY NICE, i have not seen anything about this perticular rifle before, so please could you humour me and tell all the details, some tidy grouping too, who did you get to build it or did you do it yourself.

Regards MT. :gunsmilie:

This is a new rifle built on my old remi 700 action,it was built by Russ Gall of R,G Custom riflef Aberdeenshire,i was goint to originaly use my remi h,s stock but saw the Mcmillan stock and decided to go for it,this will be my first season with this rifle Local Yocal the stock is an A5 dont know what the percentage of colour is as this stock was orderd by russ for one of his own builds,but he didnt have the time ,that is how i got this stock, thanks for the replies
