New Toy!!!

#1 Post by 20series »

Well after much drama and long drawn out waiting for my FAC renewal I have finally picked up my new precious :shakeshout: :shakeshout: :shakeshout: :shakeshout: :shakeshout: :shakeshout: :shakeshout: :shakeshout:


RPA Quadlock action, 30 inch Bartlein Barrel in .284 Win sat in a HPS Sytem Gemini F-Class stock topped off with Third Eye Evo rings holding a Sightron 10-50x60 LTRD :grin:

I cannot thank Mik Mak and Tina up at Dolphin Gun also Fergal at Irish Custom Rifles for his part for all their help and assistance particularly sorting out getting the stock sent over from Ireland where I had bought it SH for a bargain price :good: :wave: :good:

Sadly due to Oundle Range being shut until June for refitting and various personal sagas I wont get to shoot it until June :bad:

When I do I will report back on what I am sure is going to be a great rifle :flag5:

Very nice :good: I especially like the bipod (not that I've got the black micro-adjustable one - honest!) :grin:
