Hey RTH1800 - not everyone on here likes to give you a hard time. I've been blown away by the photos you've posted of your 52s. And a good shooting friend of mine was so impressed with one of your 52Cs set up as a sporter that he built one like it...which has kept me thinking about selling off one or two of my own precision .22s to finance a similar rifle project. Just thinking about it you understand - this friend of mine has also been sending me links to online auctions for Cooper & Kimber rifles, and I'm tapped-out due to those purchases...
