  Ok so here it is. I purchased this gun from a board member and stripped it down and rebuilt it. Particulars: Savage MLII cerrakoted in coyote tan. Glass and pillar bedded in a Boyd prairie hunter. Sims going to fit pad, and LOP adjusted to compensate for extra pad length. Leupold VX2 3x9-40 in Burris signature select tactical rings with a EGW 0 MOA base bedded to the action. Has a .030 savage bushing plug from Luke. My first smokeless 'build' per se. Gun shoots good, but I want to confirm accuracy with a few more range trips. |

WOW! Nice! Not usually a fan of paint jobs, but that coyote tan
in that stock sets everything off beautifully! Good job!

I have bedded numerous rifles if the past, this was the second I pillar bedded. Now that I feel more comfortable doing this I will do all my rifles in the future. The cerrakote was well worth it, I think I could have bedded this gun and not used release agent due to the cerrakote. Really pleased with this gun. Now I just need to get the stuff together and get my omega sent off and rebuilt for my son. He's 13 and very slim and he would not even consider shooting this gun. Lol. While it is not perfect, I don't think it's to bad for some bubba gunsmithing. Certainly not a CMC quality level, but I am happy with it

At lest the gun was done just the way you wanted it! Instead of the way someone else want to do it. I hope it shoot well for you. Now let's see some nice small groups. Good shooting!
