The goal of this build was sort of a tactical take on the Cooper Scout Rifle concept. The reason for documenting this is that I am sending this chassis off to a friend who is building a more bench style gun in 6.5 Creedmore. I built his Hog Hunter out with a 24" Model 10 barrel and a Choate stock. His gun is also scarily accurate. He wants to build a heavier gun and will most likely use a custom barrel for it.

That being said, I have ordered a Masterpiece Arms BA Lite, side folding chassis which should weigh in 2lbs lighter than this stock, and only 4 ounces heavier than the wood laminate stock I have for this same rifle.

The goal is still a very portable, not very heavy, 1000 yard capable rifle I can carry for long distances for hunting and PRS style competition.

Here is the rifle in the wood laminate stock.
