I though some of the other hard core rifle nuts around here might enjoy looking at my newest toy. This rifle is a Bob Scoville barrel block LV ppc stock. The action is completely free floating, and the only thing holding all this in, is the two aluminum clamps just ahead of the action. Under the clamps are two sets of flat head screws that are adjustable. The barrel sits on these screws while the clamps hold it all down. That is it, thats all that holds this all together. The action is my beloved Borden rim rock. jim Borden sure does have a fine product here fellas. This action is just perfect. the timing is like no other action i have ever had. Talk about shoot. this action flat out shoots!! Heck it doesnt even seem to matter what barrel i put on it. this action always shoots well. Back to the stock. This stock has two different weight systems. The weight system in the back is fairly simple, or standard i should say. I have made a few different weights for it on my lathe, so i can tailor the balance depending what barrel i have on the rig. There is also a weight system that hangs under the barrel clamps. This weight is a little more advanced than a standard turned piece of steel. I dont have this weight yet, but the way i understand it, the weight has some springs and some type of fluid that soaks up the vibrations from firing the rifle. I will post more on that at a later date. this rifle also has a Jewell trigger, and a krieger 13.5 twist barrel. I took this rifle out this afternoon for a little test run, and the rifle performed flawlessly. I shot some nice groups in the 1's and low 2's in a 15mph crossing wind, and yes it was cold outside. I dont shoot 133 much in this weather, so the latest variety of pull down 8208 got the call. 8208 seems to do just fine in this weather. Anyway here are a couple pics for you guys to enjoy. All in all i think it will be a fine rifle. I hope you all enjoy the pics!
