Stockys CF stock came in and put it together for a dress rehearsal. Outside was finished very well and no complaints. Inside the inletting was nice and tight/straight, however as expected, when I bolted the action in it pulled the barrel against the stock so it wasn't floated. Taking the rifle to my local smith to bed and free float the barrel. Once this is done, Ill take it apart, degrease everything and put it together for good.
The rifle with suppressor and optics is 7 pounds 3 oz, 6 pounds 9 oz without suppressor. Really excited to get this rifle out and see how she shoots once bedded. This package is a full 2 pounds lighter than the Tikka 7 rem mag I have been running the last 4-5 years. Will be shooting 106 Taps and 108 ELDms with Leverevolution....Will be looking for accuracy and 27-2750 FPS.
If it all comes together would love to test it on a spring black bear in a couple months....
