got to fondle the rifle friday evening...

form 4 at State troopers for signature now.

the extra 3 1/2 inches does seeem a little long..
however the firearm balances well in hand.

had two comments on how cool and great the color looks together with black stock.

only one person questioned the caliber...

being a welded together integrel.. rifle caliber on side.... 30 cal engraved with serial number.

also got a cool serial number--- thanks, Joe

will post more when get to actual shoot her.

already discussing possibility of going to range with shop owner.. so technically i wouldn't be taking possession yet.....

don't know if practical, or if should just wait.

here's the update.
stamp approved 1 Oct 15, sooner than I was expecting. whoo hooo!!!

was able to pick up on Monday 12 Oct, took to range today- 13 Oct.

barrel heats up dramitically !!!!

had to stop at 17 rnds... barrel way too hot, and mirage from barrel showing in scope and to the naked eye.

it is louder than my Magnum cans.. and does have more recoil than using can (little more on that shortly)

other folks at range were impressed by color scheme (dried blood red and black) and commented that they really liked it.

Larry even asked if I had another one he could buy!!

recoil:

with Curtis Tactical magic- the thing weighs just over 7 lbs WITH scope, the bare rifle before weighed right at 7 labs...

I knew he was going to thin barrel, shorten, and slim contor, just didn't releaze how drastic a change it would be.

sure will make easier to carry,

accuracy___--- will have to wait till can shoot fromkj cold barrel...

after got on paper, started to vertically string shots...

have a couple of two round groups that are about 3/4"... but barrel was warm.

rifle before the custom work shot 5/8" and smaller groups...

am going to try range again tomorrow, now that have it on paper and close to center of aim point

all in all- am extrememly pleased with Joe's work.

Good huntiung,
Chris

If you weren't thinking about it before that quarter on top of those 7 rounds should definitely have put you over the edge on the decision.
