eddybo , that action is very slick , I was realy impressed with it , I oppend and closed it several times very slowly and it does feel like a very well made unit. I personaly don't care for the huge "scallop" that is on the opposite port side of the action but I guess it does save a few ounces and give a nice flat spot to engrave.
The "old man" was talking about building a 7-08 of somthing on it? you could probably talk im out of it though.
I'm gonna try to run up their again pretty soon with my stethoscope and try to pin point some noise in his lathe , it sounds like the front bearing on the motor is giving it up.
Rustystud , sorry for the highjack , thats a sweet sounding setup , is it for some sort of tactical style build?? I see that this action does have a coated bolt I think Stiller was having them hard chromed , the one I felt with this coating was pretty nice but the new black coating does feel better. but its black so some might not like it
How does that rig shoot? and what stock is it going in?
