New handi... to me...
« on: October 15, 2011, 05:40:26 PM »
Got one in trade today.  With 3 barrels on a varmint stock.  Stock feels funny but I'll be trying it.  Got 204 & 22-250 fluted 24", and a 243 std profile 22"; all first model extractors.

The other guy is really happy too.

Probably be selling/trading 2 or all of the barrels. 

Can I get spacers for this stock? It's really short, even for me.

Be well...

What twist in the 22-250?

Stupid question Number 911652-C:  If you're gonna sell the barrels, and don't like the stock, why'd you buy it??

Choate makes the Varmint stock for H&R, they sell spacers in ¼", ½" and ¾" as well as hi and lo cheek risers, use their search to find them.

I didn't buy it.  I 'traded' for it a gun I never use, because I knew some of you fine folks would want parts of it.  And I got an extra SB2 breech.

And the 22-250 barrel is already spoken for to a friend.

It is like the one in ibgp3's picture, but no bipod included.

The stock has a certain 'bling' factor too and I've never had a synthetic stock. Hear they can be more accurate with less tweaking than wood.

Thanks for the tip Tim.
