If Mick made it...it will shoot.

P.S.....your bag's backwards.

Yes, it was cold, and I put it back on the bench for pictures, was in a bit of a hurry

And of course it does shoot!

Great looking shooting stick. Mick put my 6br together and does excellent work.
Having fun shooting it!

Is that a SEB front rest and rear bag? If so how much trouble was it to get?

Rear bag is Edgewood
Front rest is SEB, no problem to get it, but the shipping is $$ because it is heavy.

Nice boomstick.

What kind of scope/rings/base?

 

[noneck180]

Looks like TPS rings and Warne base??

Interesting choice of stock... If you're doing F/TR, why use a tactical stock? Just curious. I usually see F-Class rifles with application-specific, tutti-frutti coloured stocks.

I hope he doesn't criticize me when I get my tutti-fruity GBF stock from Mick when my rifle is done.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with the choice in stocks, it is excellent!!

Is that one of Mick's outstanding 30 cal barrels too?

Nice Rifle.

I often prefer the rear bag to face this way as it provides a more comfortable support for my rear hand holding the rear butt hook/stock. I also add a thinner bean bag under my hand, providing full support with no tension on my hand or the rear stock. For me, this works extremely well.

Beauty. Man, that SEB front rest is out of this world.

Pink and Blue. Camo. Black, OD, and Desert. Who cares, as long as it shoots.....and this one will.

The A5 stocks......I don't like the way they ride a rear bag. I don't know how some of you guys do it but I always rest the rear of the stock on the bag making sure that the butt hook and bag don't interfere with one another. I've found that when I place the bag in the butt hook the rifle doesn't recoil straight back.....and on an A5 there isn't much room behind that butt hook for a bag to ride on. My next rifle will not sport an A5 just for that reason. To each their own.......
