I was sent a Farley Action that had the lugs shear off of the bolt body.

Jackie it looks like the operation was a success and the patient make a 200%
recovery.
It's a shooting machine.
Great job of being a surgeon ( gunsmith) and shooter.
Thanks for sharing the story with us.

Here is the rifle completed. Ready to head to the range Sunday.

Taking on a project like this always begs the question……..”will it ever get finished?”

The stock is a Robertson that has had numerous actions in it, even a big Bat M at one time. It’s glued and screwed. The barrel is a 1-17 30 Cal Bartlien. Jewel Trigger, Nightforce 15x155 Competition Scope, Bat Rings modified to fit the Farley Action, my own Tuner. The trigger guard is an cut up Mauser I had laying around.

This has been a neat project. It kinda falls into the category of…..”I did it because I can”.
Everything checks out fine, so it should shoot just fine.

You can go back through the thread and read everything involved. Or just say,…..“this guy is nuts”
