Beauty, eh! What's that living on top there, a Nikon? In Burris PEPRs, looks like?

Maybe its just the viewing angle, but you might want to check that 20-rounder in the well...it looks like the feed round is angled slightly upward at the tip, which I have found is not such a good thing for feed reliability. Might want to tweak the mag lips to hold it more or less level...?

Looks great, though!

Nice. Looking forward to a range report.

The scope is a Weaver Grandslam 3 to 10. I'll have to check the mag and see how much the nose is ridding up. Hopefully it's just the picture angle. I can't wait to shoot her only 5 more weeks I HOPE!!!

I checked the clip and the nose of the bullet is ridding high. I'll have to mess with the feed lips a bit and see if I can get it closer to level. One of the best looking parts has got to be the Ross muzzle brake! I had Ross taper mine down to .760" and I did not use the crush washer when finger tight it was clocked at about 7 oclock. I was able to work it back and forth basically finishing the threads on the barrel. She is now clocked perfectly and nice and tight!

That's Mighty Purty there.

Hey while your ah healing, maybe putting one of those thicker chicken plates, across the living room, next to the TV, using six pillows, on the shoulder, you could maybe start a little indoor testing??? Heck, your wife wont say much.. ;)

I think I had Ross taper mine to .800. But the .760 looks like it worked out perfect.

You aren't alone. We've had over 40 straight days of 101+ degrees temps and heat indexes in the 112-116 range with no rain. It's brutally hot and I don't want to shoot in this heat, but I have some handloads I'm itching to test! Want to dome some videos too. But not in this heat!
