My budget precision rifle FIRST F-CLASS EVENT !

Question...is it free floated?

Yeah, you could say that... I'm waiting on a bigger barrel to go there.

I love these show and tell threads.

There ought to be a 'show and tell' forum for exactly this sort of thing; no threads allowed without pics!
 
A little update. I got my new-to-me barrel, and my bro-in-law made me a over-sized knob that I will install.

I also ordered a 20 MOA base from Mystic Precision.

My plans are to install the barrel, knob and base, do a pillar bedding with Devcon, and hit the range !

Yesterday I did a small spacer out of alumium so I can feed it better single shot.

I also made myself a buttpad out of recycled tires mat. Remember, budget project ! I got the piece of mat for free, and I did not want to buy a buttpad for this project. Yeah I know, the 3 holes don't quite align, but hey, it is made from tires !

This stuff is messy to work with, but it does not stick to the skin, it can be brushed away easily.

Next is the finish. Maybe I'll hunt coyotes and groundhog with it, and I wanted to try a green finish, so I got a "olive" stain and stained the stock.

Next will be the top coat, and the barrel swap later in December. Hope you like it !

I hang my head in shame as I am humbled and in awe of your skill..... that is bloody fantastic. I would have picked different colour for the stock... but thats just me.... thats awesome.
