My brush '06
« on: June 29, 2010, 03:48:01 PM »
Been pidling with this rifle for a couple of years.
Had my gunsmith cut recrown the barrel to 19 inches re-install the factory sites. Pillar bed, and give me a crisp 2lb trigger, it is a pre-jlock model 700 long action 30/06. When I do my part it will put 3  150 gr. Hornady poly tips 3/4 of an inch @100 yds. Got full length stock off willsnipe, cut and re-contoured, and did a duracoat finish on the whole thing. Topped off with qiuck detach rings and a Leupold 2x8. Took two nice Ky. bucks last year with it. One a 17 point non-typical.

Looks great to me.  Why did you reinstall the iron sights if you planned to use a scope with it?  Seems like an unnecessary expense as well as a pain in the woods.

That is why I put Leupy quick detaches on it, in case of scope failure or rainy day, I can drop the scope off and go with the iron sights have tried this already and she go's right back to within an inch or so of zero.

I wonder if it would be possible to build one out of a post j-lock 700?
