Title: Rattle can rebuild
Post by: jay.sharkbait on February 02, 2016, 02:50:50 PM: So I bought a Remington 700 Sendero from that scary jerk "biggerhammer".

He was right, it was a little rough and had seen it's share of home brew paintjobs.

I have an old Leupold with an interesting history that was given to me and I thought WTH, i'll try and match the optic and get in touch with my inner redneck.

Before and after.

Put some clear over it Gas Monkey Garage style.
Does she shoot?
