5 foot barrel on there? Haha you'll love shooting that thing. Though, it will start to get boring.

Because almost every powder I try, they all shot sub-MOA.

I like that. Very patriotic of you. Did you put an obama picture on it to show loyalty? maybe inside the barrel?

Very nice. Good luck with it.

Is that an axle off a '68 Chevy Nova?

Haha mine is the same. Just long enough to not fit in any of my rifle cases.

No Obama picture....And it is from a 65 Nova...Hope to finish it up in a day or two and maybe shoot it.....I added a lb. of lead in the stock so it balances better..

Looking good. I'm looking forward to your range report.

I am planning on a 223AI on a Stevens 200 stagger feed.
