Default You show me yours and Ill show you mine

Yours is good looking alright, Mine was a rescue job. Its a 6.5X55 Swede. Barrel trimmed to 19 in with a viaz flash suppressor, bolt heated and bent and machined, all sights removes and safety replaced. Stock is Cherry stained and soaked in 50/50 mineral spirits and marine polyurethane for a week and dried for a couple of weeks then finished. Top of receiver was machined to accept scope mounts then all metal was hot blued. Shoots sub MOA at 100 yards with my 140 gr SGK hand loads. Short of my .308 I consider the 6.5 the best whitetail caliber there is.

Mounted with a Nikon 4X fixed power scope
