everything else is original till i get more funds to finish what i started
also i have posted trophy pics of its first confirmed kill in the can wars
took it at a hundred yards with Winchester white box 45 gr varmint loads, so before you declare a 1-7 twist can't shoot light bullets give it a try, although miss piggy really loves 69 gr which is the heaviest rnd i have right now, let ya know how it does with 77 gr when i can get a hold of some SMK's and some Noslers, oh yeah all the texture on the bottom the can is from the metal rail it was sitting on, at first i thought i had knocked it of with debris from the bullet hit the target stand cuz it sounded like a solid hit on metal, quite impressive what liquids do under pressure

I don't know if I want to shoot it or run away from it. Looks like vicious animal from an African safari. Yeah lighter loads can be a very scary prospect. I once handloaded 220 gr Winchester Flat nose for my .375 H&H Magnum. Disintegrated on impact for the most part.

thanks, i came up with the paint scheme partly out of boredom, also somewhat of a reaction to a person who felt painting your AR is akin to being from boulder,co.
