Yum!
But how do you get cartridges into that magazine? Tucking them under the scope mount must be fun, when you're trying to reload quickly.
There's actually plenty of room... I load from the side, not the top. Haven't had any issues loading fast, even during stress drills at my last school.
Hey, I liked the color of your gun. Looking spectacular!
Thanks, its a B&C Medalist stock... the pattern is discontinued so I was fortunate that Mel Ewing was able to find one.
Here's the case I got for Xmas for her... I did the foam cutting myself and applied Plasti-Dip on foam for xtra durability.http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/01/30/6ejege2e.jpg
does that stock not allow for a removable magazine?
Does he have a website or some contact information? I am in desperate need of someone to refer bolt gun work to. I have request all the time and we just simply don't have the time to work on bolt guns anymore.
This stock does NOT accept a detachable box mag... although he sells a B&C stock that does (for an additional fee).
Mel normally takes 2-3 months to finish his rifles... currently his wait is now like 6-8 months. He dosen't normally do gunsmith work on existing rifles as he is swamped building them and test firing them.
His website is snipercentral.com
thanks for the info. I was hoping for someone who would take on re-barrels of competition rifles for long range guys.
I get request all the time. I guess I am going to have to beat my brother back into it. He used to but then he joined the Army and so he hasn't been able to for a few years. I had been referring people to a place in IL but they closed down after the government changed some laws they didn't want to deal with. Now I have not shop to refer to.
I have a 700, it is not anywere as sweet as yours. I don't have a removable mag in it so it totally would not bother me at all to not have one. I love that stock. It is way nicer than my old wood one. I don't have any complaints about how mine shoots though. It is a good shooting rifle.
