Tools of the trade

Post by V|PeR »

Everything is finally all set up ready to go on my T3 .243.

It is topped with a Vortex Viper 6.5-20*50 that I got from Antony at Vortex (thanks for all your help)
as you can see it came well packed for its travel across Australia

Nice one Viper look forward to seeing its exploits.

A question on the T3 Super Varmint though, How rigid are the original stocks? Does it flex enough that the barrel occasionally touches the stock or is it hard enough to keep it clear?

My Rem sps stock is a PITA as far as flex go's and I am sure this has resulted in some misses out over 250m.

Thanks mate
