Re: Latest Project

Thanks for the compliment. The barrel/action are Aluma-Hyde II OD green. The stock is a combination of OD Green, Coyote, and Earth Brown but I also mixed them together to change their shades and then airbrushed them on. The scope is the USO brown hard coat type III anodizing.

Jgon281,
I have only been able to fire the rifle on three occasion so far with the longest being 900 yards. Here are some pics from the Fort Gordon MWR range which is advertised as 800 yards, but it has a target stand in the woods at 900.

Here are some pics of how the rifle did during that range trip. I normally don't shoot this well, but it show the rifle's potential if you live up to your side of the bargain. I took leave next week so I can go back and try my luck again, we'll see.
