Got it cleaned up and will try to sight in tomorrow. Scope is pretty cool but I may put my Nightforce SHV which I have on my AR-15 (overkill) on it, so I may sell it. Bergara Barreled action, rechambered with a Nevis 2 reamer, head spaced to Lapua/SK ammo. Grayboe Renegade stock, bedded. 4" pic rail for bipod Hawkins bottom metal with 2 magazines Area 419 30 MOA rail Harrell's Tuner Seekins Rings Athlon Aeres ETR scope Trigger Tech Primary set to 1.5# half a brick shot through it. Guy who sold it is like me. spends over $3,000 on a .22 rifle, decides he likes Archery better and sells it.

That’s really nice Buzz! If you make it to the TYL match I’d like to run a few rounds through it if you don’t mind.

Looks good Buzz! I hope it shoots well for you.
I am still looking for the perfect apron, one with reinforced knee areas would be perfect.

Nice!
Side question - what board/rack are you using to hold it? Have been looking to build a rack on my closet wall.

Nice rifle. I'd shoot it with the existing scope and see how you like it first.

Nice rifle. I'd shoot it with the existing scope and see how you like it first. yep, think I will. Its a FFP / Mil but the reticle has the tiny "floating" dot which I love. For sure Kyle I have some Center-X some Eley Team and Match. Looks like .22lr ammo is on the "gone again" list.

Black Slatwall PanelsHangersNice thanks I might do a small section in my office to display some antique guns and an AR. Great back drop for a Zoom or Teams meeting. Liberals I work with will have a conniption fit.
