ken98k Posted June 21, 2009 Report Share Posted June 21, 2009 Here's my latest sporter. Started on it in January or February, I just blued it today. 6.5X55 Sweede, A&B barrel, Boyds stock that I slimmed down a lot, ebony fore-end tip and grip cap, hard plastic butt plate, stripper clip hump removed, Wisner safety, added a 98 style gas deflector to the bolt sleeve, recontoured trigger guard, FN type extended floor plate release, d&t for 2 piece bases. Still need to add the swivel studs. I got it like this-- As it looks now--- Did I mention "all matching"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

odies dad Posted June 21, 2009 Report Share Posted June 21, 2009 Very nice. The bolt shroud modification looks like it turned out good. What model stock is that? I like the looks of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ken98k Posted June 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2009 Very nice. The bolt shroud modification looks like it turned out good. What model stock is that? I like the looks of it. The bolt shroud/sleeve was somewhat of a challenge but it's a one of a kind. I've seen them with the gas deflector or the wisner safety but never together. The stock is a Boyds RIA Sportsman. http://www.midwayusa.com/viewproduct/?productnumber=117448 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ken98k Posted June 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2009 I added a Redfield wide view 4X scope with Weaver bases and Millett Angle Lock rings. Shoots Federal 140 sp to 1" @ 100 yards. Would probably do better with a better marksman. I noticed the primers had pushed out slightly so I re-checked the headspace when I got home and it checks out okay. I'm not sure what's up with that.
