Here's the end product - a 7mm-08 Axis barrel (the Grendel just wasn't quite what I wanted in the end) on a model 10 short action, bottom bolt release, in a walnut LWH stock. I topped it at first with a 9.9 oz Leupold 1.5-4x20 scope (as shown), but got a good deal on a VX-2 2-7x33 (also 9.9 oz). Dropped that in some Talley low rings, and that's what it will wear from here on out.

Total rifle weighs 6 lbs. 15 oz. and points like a dream. This is the first bolt action hunting rifle I've owned that reminds me of my beloved pre-64 Winchester 30-30. It balances and points just as good. I've already had friends who want me to build them one. I am not sure I've ever seen a better looking wood stock.

Its working for me now thanks
