    So I got to the range on mother's day and got my 700 sighted in. I forgot the camera and don't own a smart phone so no pics. But the gun shoots very nicely and I turned in multiple 3 round groups at 100 yards that could easily be covered by a quarter. I did a few shots at 200 also (that's the limit of our range) and was happy with the results. I'm going again Saturday and have to sight in my other hunting rifle and will be shooting the pistols as well. I can't wait to see how my 700 does after a brief rest after it's initial break in. I'm going to try to remember to take the camera.

    Add one Enfield ishapore 2a.

    I traded a kayak a while back and the guy was supposed to find me a mosen and he showed up with this.
    The poor thing has been painted with gold trim

    I would rather of had a Mosen but I want to try and save this rifle and made the deal.
    Now it will take me weeks just to remove the paint.

    LOL - you should post a pic of it in it's "before" state!

    I redid the stock on one of my Savage 99's two years ago with a Tru-Oil stock refinishing kit and it came out really nice.

    I may do that.
    The stock has been repaired in 2 places but other than that it looks to be in not to bad of shape besides the paint, dirt and a few bugered up screws.

    I may just strip it down and do a good clean up, nothing really time consuming. "that Gold paint has to go".
    For now I just put it in the gun cabinet and will be ignoring it for a while as I work on the AR 15 is started this month.

    Ordered most of the parts I was missing for this last AR build for $169.99 PSA daily deals
    http://palmettostatearmory.com/index...ng-handle.html
    I'm just missing a striped lower and a rear sight, so I need maybe $70 more to finish it.

    It may take me 3 months to get all the parts I want but I will do it for $500 or less

    Nice!

    You'll definitely have to take some pics and post them when it's done
