Let the build begin
« on: January 05, 2022, 03:25:17 PM »
 Been wanting to do this for some time and finally pulled the trigger on it. This originally started with ordering a 26" bartlein carbon fiber barrel to rebarrel my current rifle. Well that idea didn't last long and decided it was time to build a whole new rifle. Defiance is is 50+ weeks out on their actions and I did not want to wait a year for it. My cousin told me about ragged hole barrels and their hell betty action. It's just a renamed tenacity and they had some in stock! I ordered it on Dec 20th and it just arrived today! I have a hawkins bottom metal and flush magazine arriving any day also! I haven't decided on a stock yet so any suggestions?

Nice :tup: 😉🥃🇺🇸
Hey! I'm not a complete idiot I have parts missing. Though sometimes I wonder.

If you want to make God laugh tell him your plans.

Find a stock already inlet for that action.........
I went with LRI because they had Manners in stock and could inlet to any action.   Well that turned out to be -Not So Quick-.  Over 9 months and counting with no waiting on parts.

Beautiful but way to shiny, it’s going to look like a light sabor in the woods. Just my 2cents.
