cactusjack Report post Posted April 16, 2013 I know there are many ways to attach a rifle to a tripod, but I couldn't find one that didn't have to always be on the rifle that worked with the Manfrotto 501/701 heads. I took a quick detach mount that is used to put an ACOG onto a Picatinny rail and inverted it and attached it to the plate. Works great. I can switch it without tools between anything that i have with a rail on the bottom. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cactusjack Report post Posted April 16, 2013 The bolt gun is in a Manners stock and I attached the small rail that is in the picture. When I get back home I will post the pics. I used a forstner bit and counter sunk the anchors just like Manners did. I had to use stainless machine screws because that was what was available at my Ace Hardware. Pics updated.

cactusjack Report post Posted May 18, 2013 Was talking with Amanda and I told her about the suppressor on the 308 I put together. Here is a short video of my 15yo (102lb) son shooting it suppressed. http://s1355.photobucket.com/user/sdking35/media/VID_20130410_155401_374_zps983b51ef.mp4.html 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

87lc Report post Posted July 13, 2013 That looks good, but what looks better is the 40 behind it. Are you on mud? As my name says I have an 87 FJ60. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cactusjack Report post Posted July 13, 2013 Good eye. I am on mud. I have a 77, that I bought to wheel, but is to nice to ruin. I bought it bone stock with 72k miles on it 8 years ago, from the 2nd owner. First owner had it 4 months, then was sent to Korea for 3 years so he sold it to his commander. So I have an 88 FJ62 that I bought to trash. Had a 86 FJ60 that a friend talked me into selling to him. Still regret selling it. I might have some hoarding issues.

cactusjack Report post Posted August 6, 2013 Finished attaching rail to the Manners stock for my Tikka. Have one for my Savage and an old Rem 600. Will post when those are built. Thought I'd see which one has better contrast. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
