Both Luke at Arrowhead Sporting Goods and Jeff at Hankins Precision are honest and knowledgeable folks I've dealt with both and nothing but good to say about either.I don't have a picture handy but Luke Horak at Arrowhead Rifles fixed one that another builder built for me. The other builder is now out of business (for good reason), but Luke was able to take what I had and make it a tack driver. I would not think twice about using Luke again in the future. His gun is a pleasure to shoot and I can regularly hit steel at 500 yards.
Who did the build ?Just picked up my 1st smokeless 45 off this forum. I'm hooked..
With respect brother, there's a "2022 Meatpole" thread for that. Let's see if we can keep this one strictly about our wickedly beautiful SML's only.Being deer season currently...let's see some of your kills gents!
Bradley is the man..Who did the build ?
Jeff is the man in my book. He was the first one that invented. Go to youtube watch jeff test his ignition system against lukes. Luke does have some good inventions. But some builders think luke is the one and only.Both Luke at Arrowhead Sporting Goods and Jeff at Hankins Precision are honest and knowledgeable folks I've dealt with both and nothing but good to say about either.
Luke and Hankins are not the only top quality builders. My rifle was build by Bestill Creations and it will shoot as well as any. I actually won the inaugural modern inline LONG RANGE match at Camp Atterbury with it. 800, 900 and 1,000yds using 120grs of BH209 BY VOLUME. It shoots .3moa (point 3) at 600 with SML.Jeff is the man in my book. He was the first one that invented. Go to youtube watch jeff test his ignition system against lukes.

Oh how i know.Luke and Hankins are not the only top quality builders. My rifle was build by Bestill Creations and it will shoot as well as any.

I don't think either were the 'first one that invented'. There are others before them.
We need to keep this post directed towards showing off the SML's, not getting into who did what.
