Hi Sal,

Your rifle is real close. I'd love to say "100%", but I think I need to tweak the chambering geometry. By the time I could shoot, it was dusk. I'll figure it out. Nobody wishes more then me. thumbs up

Thanks Sal!

Sal

Happy birthday . You know it's worth driving there to pick it up . My gun case I had drop shipped was pretty tore up but did protect the prize inside .

Thanks

Congratulations Gary for another completed project. Beautiful indeed and most of all, quiet. bowing

Congratulations Sal on your birthday and also for the present that you are going to receive. I know that you and your sons will enjoy it for the years to come. I hope to see you all on the next shoot.

Gary,

The outrider has some good lines....wood and metals! Great pictures. I like how you have the hammer on a slight angle....interesting and unique.. The shrouded barrel gives a good multi-tone with the brushed aluminum also..
Be fun to shoot with it being so quiet! Prolly make more noise walking thru woods ha.. Sals got a great air rifle to enjoy!

Btw....chambering geometry! That's can only be a 5 min job tops right! lol

The work and food looks good,

Matt

Beautiful, looks even better in the rain, lol. We woke up this morning to rain sad smiley so much for the outdoor projects being completed today. I did get treated to a nice brunch for my birthday, which is always appreciated.

I really do like the lines of the .25, and the contrast between the bluing and brushed aluminum is very nice. I hope my scope is long enough to pass over the loading port so I have a fighting chance to get my fingers in there. Is that what you're talking about when you say chambering geometry?

Thanks Gary, when all is said and done, we will all enjoy shooting often and sharing with friends and family.

Have a good weekend!
Sal

Hi Sal,

That's a short shotgun scope on short height rings. The barrel is smaller then the shroud diameter breech slide. If my fingers have easy access in this worst case example, I can't see an issue with any scope arrangement.

Actually, I didn't even want to post last night because I feared readers would try to look for any hideous flaws (haha - like barrel facing shooter, push trigger rather then pull, butt plate over the muzzle ....). whistling

Ill be working on how the pellet slides into the rifling. thumbs up

Wanted to show you how far it's come.

Thanks Gary! I swear I'm not looking for flaws! "Chambering geometry" makes the novice mind wander a bit, but now that you explained it, it makes sense smiling smiley

Thanks for the updates, I really do appreciate them.

Hi Sal!

Yeah ... You know ..... "Chambering Geometry" ( or what we here at BPS refer to as "CG"), is much higher form of tech speak. I need to justify the outrageous line items on this bill I'm preparing for you .... whistling

You know ..., the one with N/C at the bottom .... typing

thumbs up
