Hi all
Here is a picture of my last project. I had a modified Axis in 223 (12VLP heavy barrel, rifle basix trigger, 20 moa base, new stock, etc). I bought a 30-06 Axis for deer hunting, and I got my hand on a Savage 12 heavy barrel in 308. Then wheels started spinning, and I got this.
One benchrest stock, one hunting stock, and one f-class/long range kinda stock. Then 2 barreled action, 223 with 1:7 twist (stainless barrel) and 308 with 1:10 twist (black barrel) Both action have the same footprint, I am pretty sure they will share the bedding without problem. I'll have the recoil key in each stock, no need to swap those. I also have 2 scopes, one in 8-32 x 50, and the other in 3-9 x 50.
So all I have to do is choose components, assemble, zero scope, and shoot ! And I can add components to the mix any time I like.
