This is what keeps me sane...... (I work for the state...)


Truck sale US$25 springer... baltic birch laminated stock, ebony (although it looks green for some reason), Leapers 4x scope

Screws hanging down need to be replaced or trimmed (didnt know how much too tall the cheek piece was gonna be....). Action needs a smooth/lube tune, and trigger work.

Work all day in yer head and this is what your hands do for fun.....

Stock? Yes. Got the original technique from rimfirecentral.com, then adapted it.

Shoots ragged one holers at 3 yards....across the shop. Havent been out anywhere since it was put together to see what it can do. Wanted to do a smooth/lube tune too.
Diesels a bithot smiley as it only has about 30 shots thru it.

Nice rig . . . I've got one of those BugBusters (mine's 6x) but found the eye relief rather short. Maybe I'm just spoiled by Gary's 4x Simmons, which has about a mile of eye relief (shotgun scope). google eyes
