    I was thinking the same thing, too bad they don't have a reduced angle version.

    Beautiful build.

    You have me googling some of these components now for my own future builds.

    As always, thanks for sharing such an awesome rifle.

    Nicely done! I have to admit that I too like the looks of your G10 grip.

    Wow, that's a unique build. I've never seen a lot of those parts before. Very nice.
    What's the weight of that?

    Without a digital scale and using an old fashioned floor scale, it is a tad over 9 lbs. as you see it. Without the scope/mount, it comes in right around 7.25 lbs. I need to get a cheap digital scale to weigh it more accurately. I think those number are actually a bit high. It feels lighter. I will let you guys know for sure later today.
