Hi and welcome
I think we met at Bisley F-class shoot when you and Mik were having a chat about that rifle!!
I was the one who wandered of with it to the firing point and joked about not drooling on it :lol:

Welcome to the forum. Fancy shooting at the McQueens Forum shoot, that's if you can get the tyre kickers off of it :lol:
How do you find the stock? I read some less than flattering comments about one bought for a custom build??

Hi Mike357 and 20series
I am busy with NRA applications and Probationary periods - so I doubt I would be allowed to shoot BUT I will attend and learn
and smell burnt propellant!
:-) "I was the one who wandered of with it to the firing point and joked about not drooling on it "
I do remember - MIK and I had to strip clean it and wipe down all the non drool :lol:
As for the stock - The whole gun felt very balanced in my hands
I shot about 20 rounds @ 100 with some factory ammo - got about .75 MOA - so I am happy to state the gun is more capable than me
I do have VERY little experience in this arena of shooting but I do believe that I have a more than worthy weapon to learn the art of F-Class & long distance missing :-)

Out of all of my rifles my AI is the one I would grab in a rush, it is dependable, predictable and steady, it shoots whatever I stuff in it and feels right. Over the years it has evolved and I can look at it and know it is mine. I decided it was getting close to shot out probably 18 months ago yet it still keeps going and returns good results and come the next trip to DK I will try and pick up 1000 rounds of milsurp to keep it happy.
I have a second one a shorter barrel and suppressor sitting next to it but somehow it is not the same. If yours is half as much fun as mine has been then you are in for a cracking few years with it.
