    Turning a 7 lb, block of 4061 into a new flat rider butt stock. It's milled and
    configured to use the original cheek riser, and butt pad. lower section can be
    filled with lead shot.

    Dog and pony show mock up. I installed an aluminum block inside the magazine
    well. The block is used to accommodate the center screw on a PTA action.

    Parts coming in weekly. Blank barrel and tuner is in house, and waiting on scope
    rings for the March scope.

    Thanks, Charlie....

    Rifle will be used more for the short course type of matches, more specific for
    UBR and the Tack Driver match's. Going to chamber it my 284-ELF wild cat I've
    been developing and tweaking for the past 2 years. I have been shooting in UBR
    Unlimited, so rifle weight is not a problem. The Tack Driver match's require you
    to be under 22 lbs, So I have some breathing room to use a heavier barrel and
    optics. As for Optics, the MarchX with the new Super ED flourite glass is something
    in it's own league. I own a Vortex GE and Night Force Comp. The NF Comp has been
    my go to scope. The Vortex went back in the box, and will probably sell it.

    Hey Gary, this is like that last one, when you sent me these pics to post, (below.) This Chassis extension arm & Stock you mill, is this like your “patented” work..I mean, like your “calling card” design for rifles? I like it… Looks great man! You ever thought of making these to sell? Or are you more like me, just like the doing of designing, machining & building but not interested in a monetary venture. Also, just curious… did you mean 6061 Billet? I ask because 4000 series, that I’ve ever been aware of, is typically used only as filler. The suppliers I deal with don’t supply it in Billet plate or bar style. I do use 6061 quite often for many, many projects, but when I’m building something of note, I always use either 7075 or 2024 for their strength & stiffness characteristics.

    Again though, I do very much like your design.


    Actually, I think we somewhat share some aspect of design in our mind’s eye, so to speak. This was a stock I made a couple years ago on my last Chassis. Although I will say your’s is quite a bit nicer. (Parts machined & added to the buffer tube) Your’s is a
