Tacticool pics

[missed]

Barrel should be here late next week. I'm going to wait until I get it back together and I'll get out and get some pictures worthy of it....

[ShawneeB]

That sounds good. I won't ask questions now, I'll wait for the thread

if you have a DBM your screws are long enough. What I need to figure out is there enough wood for an Anshuntz rail!!

I'm not sure how you mount an Anshuntz rail but it looks like it might be kind of difficult. I took a pic of the inside of the fore arm on the stock I just got in. Up front you can see the two screws for the sling studs protruding through and then the cut out goes back several inches. I didn't measure the thickness of the wood in the cut out but I'd estimate it to be about .5". Here's a pic, hope it helps ya out.



Heres another pic of the stock awaiting the barrel channel to be sanded so I can drop my action. I should have it done tomorrow with my optics mounted and muzzle break installed.

Just wait you haven't seen the black olive yet....

Did you get the bedding job done yet, care to share any pics?

ok, heres the mock up on my 308 I'm assembling. it's built off an old 110 LA staggerfeed model. I plan to bed it yet but heres what she'll look like!

I'll get some pictures of the bedding job, I wasn't thrilled about it but it will work. Pillar installation in the Tacticool is a challenge since it is real thin in spots and the sear on the back one.

On the rail I am worried about the same issue with not enough meat there. I had though about carving it out and then putting some cross pins in and jb weld the pins and rail together. I gotta do a lot of measuring and thinking though.

I may have missed the answer to this but where did you guys get the nutmeg laminate and black olive laminate finished stocks? From what I have found, Boyds website only lists the finish as textured black.

Just gotta know the right people......

Boyd's did a special run of them for like two weeks. When I get the next receiver I'm going to pester them for another one. They are awesome.

That's a mighty fine looking rifle. Did you get the unfinished version from midway and finish it yourself?

Got it from Boyd's they did a small run like that before Christmas. I think I might have the only FV-SR like that.

Well just ordered a tacticool for my model 11. Can't wait to the brown truck shows up.

[cjfish]

Truck showed up today. Stock fits great. Cant wait to get to the range.

Here is my first Savage older 112 FV.223[IMG][/IMG][IMG][/IMG] shoots great,now I need to start reloading

[cjfish]

Question. I put a tacticool on my 11. Did anyone one find that the rear action screw is almost to short. It fits but seems to only grab a few turns.

[sa-shooter]

I think Boyds sells a longer screw, since I pillar bedded mines I made my own length screws, the screw is 1/4-28 thread pitch

[cjfish]

Thanks sa

Here is my nutmeg brown laminate I got in for my savage 111 Trophy Hunter XP in 25-06. I just threw it together to get an idea.

Those are some great looking rifles. Sadly I won't get to use my Tacticool. I got the stock first and ended up getting a different rifle so I guess I'll be getting rid of the stock now.

10FP .223 Rem w/ 24" factory barrel
PTG Stealth bottom metal
SWFA SS HD 5-20x50
EGW 20 MOA base
TPS Aluminum rings
Harris Bipod

First groups with the new stock. The rifle consistently shoots under 0.6" with standard AR-15 match loads.

[Marfaprecision]

Jpdown... How do you like the Fred sled. I have been looking at them for awhile now. Just been wondering if they work like advertised. I single load just about always.
Thanks,
