Bump for some excellent rifles and a great builder! Some of you need one of these for your hunts this year. You won't be disappointed in any of these rifles.

What scope is on it?

That's awesome, I've got a 721 in .270 that will be a 6.5 x 284 soon. Those old 721's and 722's are great!

Here it is all put back together, took it to my folks house to show my dad today. He loved it and told me " Don't forget where you got that!" LOL

You weren't using it so I figured it'd be ok! Lol

So I've been chipping away at it just doing a little at a time. Got it sanded and prepped. Gave it a good coat of primer, 2 coats of Khaki tan and then two coats of texture. Just gave it one more coat of khaki, going to let that all cure for a day and then start the camo part of it.

So here is my newest project, I am really excited about this one.
This rifle is/was my fathers. It started its life with us as a used Mossberg model 800A .308 my dad bought back in 1976. He took it deer hunting one time and brought home a little forky. Then it sat in the closet then under my bed until I was 16. Growing up we didn't hunt, we fished, a lot. I caught the hunting bug when I was 16 and went archery deer hunting with a friend of mine. After that I have put in every year since. I got drawn for deer when I was 17 for the Nov hunt in 27, shot the biggest squirrel I have ever seen lol.
I killed my first elk with this rifle, a cow in 5bs at 15 yards. I have put well over a thousand rounds through this old gun, and it always shot pretty good. I love this old gun, and it will be the one my oldest shoots on her first hunt, and be passed down through my kids to my son. He's the caboose, and with 3 older sisters he'll deserve a reward if he survives their henpecking lol.
My buddy Todd with Southern Xpress helped me out a lot with this one. I had him put a new barrel on it, a 26" Shillen, chambered in 6.5 Creemoor, and coated it and the action in desert tan. Then he played with the trigger so it breaks right at 3 pounds. I will be painting the stock, putting on the recoil pad and mounting the scope. She may not look like much now, but she will soon. I will keep posting pics as I get more done and of course when I finally get to shoot it. I will be shooting the new Hornady Precision Hunter with the 143 grain ELD-X. Hoping for the best with that load. I'm going to do a custom Kryptic camo paint job on her also. This should be a Coues killing machine!
