Looks like he done a great job,

Let us know how she shoots. I will probably have mine done next springtime...
I kill elk and eat elk, when I'm not, I'm thinking about killing elk and eating elk.

It doesn't matter what you think...

Eric at Mountain Shadow Arms is absolutely excellent.  I am glad you found him.

he seemed to be a great guy. i will return for any work i need done and reccomend my friends go there.
on another note. i got a casse stuck in my die last night reloading some shells.... :bash: i hate that..
i did load some accubonds to try though. maybe they will work well.

I've got a Surefire on my 308. $220 installed from my gunsmith. It only blows out the sides so it won't blow crap in your face when prone. Shot 877 yard steel with 'er Friday.
I couldn't care less about what anybody says..............

Sorry to hear about your smith problems. I've had to go and reclaim a few guns after the smith didn't touch the gun 4 weeks into a 2 week trigger job.  I also did business with a barrel maker for the last time after waiting 25 weeks on a 10 week barrel. Then I was over charged to boot. 

Find a good smith, and only give his name to your best friends.
