Hi Guys
I have been in and out of shooting sports , hunting since i can remember, from being a young 6 year old chasing rabbits on our property with a 22LR lever action, than stepping up to my firs real gun at 12 , a Remington 700 BDL in 3006 , and use to chase pigs around with that thing
through my 20s and 30s shooting was a on again off again thing ,, Depending where i lived , if i was near a range i would get back into F-class or 500M fly shooting , there was a long 6 year break until last year.
Unfortunately Heartbreak has lead me back into shooting.
On the 23rd of June last year my father passed from a sudden unexpected heart attack, pretty much my only shooting i would do was when i would go and visit mum and dad at the farm , would catch up and chat than head to the range to see who was better
With his passing he left me his Rifles and shotgun
BR50 22lr benchrest thin shoots lasers
CZ455 Tacticool 22lr
a 12 Gauge under and over to shoot clays
a fuly tuned Walther LGU .17 air rifle
I have been back into it shooting small bore bench and sporting clays and indoor Air rifle but the big BANG has called me back
Being a machinist and having the tooling still from back in my F-class days to work on 700 Actions i just got one (waiting for the licence to come through)
I know there is much better bases to start from these days ,, but tinkering fixing and modding is my most favourite part of the sport
So i got the cheapest one i can find a 700 ADL in 6.5creedmoor
I will be working up some loads on the Basic rifle and seeing how bad it shoots LOL , than doing my best to make it better
Pretty much what i just did with dads CZ455 TactiPOOOOOO as i called it as it woulndt shoot 2 inch groups at 50M
I pillar bedded it , shaped the pin , done the trigger (8OZ) than a Full Devcon 10110 bed and Atlaswrx bottom metal
shoots lasers now
5 shot Group at 50M with Federal Hunter Match
So im pretty happy with that
look forward to asking questions and sharing my build of my 700
