It wasn't so bad once the sun came up, we ended both days of the match around 19° and by that point it actually felt warm. We were shooting near Vantage, just off the Columbia river.

Figured I could show ya what I have...
Savage 10FLCPK in .308 and yes I know the bolt handle is on the "wrong" side.

Just this week I took it all apart and painted it. I think it turned out alright. When I put it back together I added a triad stock pack and a rear monopod. (I'm not sure i like it because it requires me to run the Harris bipod extended all the way out to 9". Feels like walking on stilts.

I also loaded some rounds...

Hornady Match BTHP 168 gr.
42 grains of Norma 203b
COAL = 2.815"

I was shooting 3/4" inch groups at 100 yards.
I would have shot at 300 but it started raining.

Onto the pics
