Next project: Sako L461 in 20-222

Post by Branxhunter »

Have all the hardware, hopefully will send off next week to Jerome to blue the various bits and chamber the ss Pac-nor 1:11 in 20-222.

The stock will be based on a Sako factory varmint fore end with a modified pistol grip and butt - in walnut of course!

Hi Jack,
Congratulations, I thought you were a plasterer not a plumber. Hope he turns out to be a good shooter. Start teaching him young. Will we see him at Narromine next year.
Cheers,
Trevor.
