Looks great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Some of you remember my tale of wanting a shorty gun, bought a beautiful walnut stock only to have it break when removing it from the glass bedding....well I have been still playing around with the idea of a shorty gun, couldn't get it out of my mind...something very accurate...short, handy, easy to carry...OH and I also ordered one of the walnut stocks from Numrich to work on for a swap.
An inexpensive Savage 110FP as a base gun, barrel shortened to 16.25", threaded 5/8 x 24tpi, thread protector, a YHM QD Flash Suppressor, .250 Recoil Lug, 3 screw trigger tuned to about 3.5lbs, over size bolt handle, Bolt lift Kit, Savage Laminate stock in black, looks gray/green in daylight, barrel channel opened up to free float barrel, Picatinny rail for bipod, stock bag. SWFA 12X fixed scope, EGW Rail, Burris X-Treme rings. CDI LA Short Cartridge DBM, AICS 308 pattern 5 and 10 rd magazines all wrapped up in OD Green.

Coming from you means a lot...thanks...she really loved FGMM 175 and clone before as a 24" barrel...we'll see how she likes than now...
Awesome looking build.
Came out nice. Something when the scope is longer than the barrel.
With that short of a barrel you may want to try the Sierra 110 varmint bullet, flat base and shoot real good out to 200 out of my 20" stock bull.

Do it today there maybe no tomorrow
I don't know why I didn't think about Numrich for a stock. I just bought a Boyd's and probably required just as much fitting as the one you bought. I like the look you've created.

$67 from Numrich...the walnut stock was $29
Where did you get the $29 stock?

I haven't finished it yet
I swear, a split second before finding this thread I was just wondering who it was who built, and then broke, the walnut stock. I am still wanting to build a stock. I'm a wooden boat builder by trade and thinks I could do a stock build justice. I want a copy of the McMillan A-4 so bad. I do a lot of work with carbon fiber, Kevlar and glass too. Epoxy work is also one of my tools.
I just cant afford to buy one or I probably would, but what fun would that be though.
I loved reading your previous thread and I was almost as hurt as you probably were, that hurt. You new creation looks fine too though.
