A little before and after...
« on: February 27, 2014, 06:47:10 PM »
Picked up a Remington 700 ADL Varmint in .22-250 from Cabela's last week (after the rebate it was dirt cheap). Got in my parts from redhawkrifles.com (quick customer service responses and shipping, plus cheap prices) that consist of a B&C A2, wyatt outdoors detachable magazine kit, and the new Timney Calvin Elite trigger. Then topped her off with a Zeiss Conquest 6.5-20x50 I bought a few months ago anticipating a build like this. After figuring out the annoying bolt stop part of replacing the trigger it all just snapped together no problem. Timney advertises the Calvin Elite at 8oz-2.5lb, and it came from the factory between 10 and 11 ounces with a little creep. I will probably adjust it later to eliminate the creep and stiffen it up a little since it will be a coyote gun. It has been a good day  ;D

That looks SHARP.

I bought my B&C stock from Redhawk also.  Great price and quick shipping.

Now you need to come shoot the precision rifle skillbuilder that Wallace is putting on.

That looks clean man.
It is highly likely the above post may offend you. I'm fine with that.
