way to go mike .... gun doesn't look any different then when I had it does it ! What load are you using - I still like 25/8 , 18 grns 20/28 , G-wad and 7/8 or 365 grns . You obviously can see trap birds better then I can in the snow !

Good stuff, been a fun project. Using the 1oz #7.5 RGL or a Herco or Blue dot recipe that on paper matches it's performance. Toying with a 7/8oz #8 RGL/Claybuster recipe for warmer weather.

Just a little bit different Bill....

Add-a-Rib adjustable vent rib
Hiviz front sight
Mike Orlen installed Colonial tubes
Boyds Thumbhole
Add-a-Rib stock positioning/LOP pad adjuster

To (maybe) Do list;
maybe borrow byrdogs forcing cone reamer and lengthen the cone
maybe get the matching Boyds forearm and butt stock in Royal (purple)
maybe find a way to add a comb adjuster to the Boyds stock
maybe shoot more straights

Bonus fun stuff; when other shooters find out it's a 16 Shocked Very Happy [/u]
