Re: 308 custom
Looking good there mate. You'll have to let me know when your planning to head out. I think we need to plan for a fine Saturday chasing furries down in the dunes - DC's .204 vs your.308 vs my .22-250

Re: 308 custom
Looking good there mate - what load were you using? Did you have the Rifle Basix fitted?
Did you fit some lower rings too?

Re: 308 custom
Very nice looking rifle there mate, and it shoots as good as it looks.
You will have to do a bit of a write up when kicks the .204 and 22.250 back into the gunsafe
