Well folks, get ready for a long tale. I feel I owe Rocky an explanation for the absence of pics or video in Darren's build. Simple fact is Darren knows of my adventures with an un-named provider and thinks I'm a fool for being on this site. Sorry, make that "an utter, damn fool". This is the reason for no pics of him shooting in the range photos except the long range ones of him changing targets, he made me delete them. I thought I would be able to talk him out of this mind set because I really wanted to brag and show off this build but apparently this isn't going to happen. I even learned how to use the video function on my camera. Darren is adamant about this and I don't see him changing his mind in the near or far future. He is a very close and good friend and I'm going to respect his wishes even though I disagree. So there is where the matter lies, in post #2 there is pic 1 and that is very close to what we ended up with, although his stock has a flat bottom forend for riding the front rest bags better. I'll keep working on him but not to the point of pissing him off or ruining a good friendship, thks for all the time guys....K00l
