New 308 build

Post by scat »

Just finished my new 308 build. Savage action, Criterion barrel, Boyds stock, rifle basix trigger, and Vortex Viper scope. At the range today, I was pleased to get dime-sized groups with Berger Hunting VLD's.

That is definitely a work of art! 8-)

Nice rifle, how much does your stock weigh? I've been looking at a boyds for my .308 but I'm trying to keep the weight down to 6.5 to 6 lbs. For a total package.
