You made that stock?!

We have a small company making composite rifle stocks since about 7 years but don't export to the US at the moment. I was involved in composites for almost 40 years but hunt longer :D. This particular stock took three years to get off the ground as it was fairly complex being a monocoque structure with inner carbon frame, outer carbon shell, carbon pillars fully inlet in one wet in wet moulding.
Next I will fit an AI mag system to my rifle and S&B is getting us one of their new ultra short PMII's to try as this would make a lovely light weight 800m setup. Just right for the rest of our deer cull season.
Just not sure if I shouldn't chop the barrel at 18"?

Very nice work as always Edi.
I am sure you will gain more than you will loose by chopping it to 18" if you know what I mean.
168grn bullet in a short barrel should be good to 600m +. Depending on what you shoot at beyond that might be pushing it.

Thanks,
my last 308 that I recently sold shot quite well out to just under 1000yds with 168 A-max and 20" Bartlein Palma barrel.
must do a bit of testing now, also with 155 a-max ....if it would only stop raining.....

After taking a few deer between 130m and 380m it's time for the next step. AI type Mag system fitted and bedded (field strippable fit). 3 position Safety made in Bavaria by ASH. The T3 is growing on me.
