Just got my grayboe stock, Jewell Trigger, Anti-cant Bubble on scope and Harris Bipod!

The wife is restless so I told her I'm done... for now......

Some women just don't get it? What else are we men supposed to spend money on.

That's what I'm saying. Guess I'll have just have to start buying ammo... Can't expect me to have a rifle and not use it!

Thanks guys. I'm pretty stoked, this the nicest setup I've ever had. Will let y'all know how she shoots.

Snake oil... You must be selling some snake oil with that one. Might be able to get away with that one face to face but my wife is an accountant and she would find it on the books hammer

It's stock Remington heavy barrel right now. I work next door to Roberts Precision Rifles and he thought it was a good idea, since I'm just getting into long distance, for me to practice on the stock barrel and once I shoot it out for him to put a new one on.

With the completely stock Remington and hogue stock I was shooting on average 3/4 inch groups, some being as large as 1 inch some being clovers but on average 3/4

That dog will hunt. Plenty good rifle, plenty good scope.

If that's a 3/4 6.5 Creedmoor, I agree, shoot the barrel out.

Sounds like it shoots as good as it looks. Did Grayboe paint it or is that your artwork? Nice camo job.

I'm sure I'll be getting in touch with you at some point. Interested in some of your subsonic creedmoor loads... once my suppressor comes in, only a few more probably 8 months.

Option from grayboe, I really like it though. When I first unboxed it I didn't have any lights on and I thought they sent me a solid black one. Walked outside and was pleasantly surprised.
