Most of the tuning work done long ago with a recent bump down to just sub 12 fpe. Rebuilt the cocking arm detente mechanism eliminating the heavy spring loaded ball going to rare earth magnets ( No more barrel deflection :D ) Fitted an Over Size handle w/ grip tape for easy peezy unlocking and stowing of cocking arm.
Having recently received an LP stock from Poland, and prepping it for paint ( Rustoleum multi-colorTextured ) was able to get the final assembly done today.
A Very unique look no doubt & feel it is pretty cool and personal. The Texture actually feels really nice not being slippery, cold or hot to the touch. Should fair well out in the elements during 3-4 hours long FT competitions 8)

Scott,
So is that your unfair advantage? :D
Nice looking.

So, now do you have time for donuts, coffee and time to turn a DELRIN spring follower for mine?

Does your PM or Email or Phone no longer work ::)

I guess not Scott.
The fellow in Elk Grove said you were very busy for awhile.
That is all I know.
I did not want to bother you.

Very nice, Scott.

Yeah Scott,
It's refreshing to see someone who's following their bliss in retirement ;).
I know you're not retired in a sense, but your doing exactly what you want to do ... like a 15 YO kid (w/skills) ;D.
It seems no matter what you're working on (ie. PCP's/Springers) it's all about minimizing recoil/vibration/mechanical deficiencies to achieve precision.
I re-semble your passion for engineering work 8), but lack the patience for the subtlety of shooting on the margin :P.

Very nice what does it weigh if you don't mind? Steve!

STEVE: If Scott is busy for the moment, I'll chime in with what my TX200, .22 cal, walnut stock, weighs in at (without scope): a sweet 9.2 lbs. Hope to have helped. Orv.

Man. Consistently some of the best work on here, no matter the platform. Very nice.
