Got my baby back!

Post by Model70 »

Well ive had it back for a while but thought id get it out of its bag and take a couple of pic's.
She is a Winchester Model70 Stealth (heavy varmint) in 22-250 and after a lot of throat erosion on the factory barrel and groups going from a consistent 1/2" out to an inch I sent her down to get fitted with a nice big fat shiny Tobler barrel. Very happy to say the least with a quick turn around and a reasonable price.
Just gotta save for a scope then get some range time in to tweak up a load.

Thanks fellas, Im trying to hang out for a new scope but its going to get the better of me so she might wear the 4-16x40 Jap Tasco for a while, yes its only a tasco but ive had it on various rifles over the last seven odd years and she hasnt missed a beat.......
