New Build for My Daughter and Special Thanks to RiflePainter

[WSMNUT]

I just got the parts back from @RiflePainter where he custom cerakoted the stock and barreled action, he also took special attention to the small parts like action screws, scope ring screws and bolt release to add a little something extra without going overboard with the purple. If you’re wanting some custom cerakote work make sure you reach out to Jonathan at Alabama Gunworks.

It’ll be her deer rifle. She’s 7 now. She killed her first deer with it last year when she was 6. It was kind of a last minute idea to take her on a youth hunt so I put the rifle together quickly and her and I worked up a load. After she harvested her first deer I took it back apart and sent parts out for fluting, nitride and to Jonathan for cerakote.

Here’s a picture of her last year before we made it almost as pretty as she is.
And a picture of her this morning holding it after it was finished.

More than likely she will be hunting deer for a couple of years. She said she wants to shoot a big buck. I’m pretty sure she has to be 12 to hunt most of the western big game states. She will get her chance like her older sister has had.

She has a smile as big as a mile! Great job Dad.
