The start of something beautiful

Amazing job!! Eager to hear the range report.

Let's get a 200 yard zero on that fine looking rifle. I'll pull targets for you at FWRR. I'm off the 6th, 7th, and 13th. I have plenty of ammo. Don't worry about barrel break-in. It isn't necessary. Just be sure it is well greased with lubriplate or equivalent. In all the right spots.

I will help you get up to speed if you wish.

You definitely did a beautiful rifle justice. Very, VERY good work, all the way around. Makes me kind of sad that my M1 "service grade" wears a Boyd's beech stock instead of walnut. I need to get on that....

AWESOME rife! Where did you get your receiver in the beginning? I have been wanting to do the same and build one. You did a great job.

Thanks guys!

I will have to check my schedule to see what time I will actually be able to get away to play with this thing.

The receiver came through cmp. Unfortunately quality receivers are becoming much harder to find right now...

I will be off this coming Sunday. I need to get a 300 yard zero on my Palma gun for Camp Perry long range matches.

Don't forget to get an M1 buddy for your Garand.

Just ordered one, with 5rd. clips, and the ratchet brushes. And don't forget to clean your M1 or M1A in the bottoms up mode to prevent cleaning fluids and grunge from entering the gas post.

Damn it. Going to have to buy one of those. How did you shoot at camp perry?

Tuesday is Presidents 100 and Wednesday is the leg match. I am hoping to get there for both. If not, at least the Leg match. I only need 12 points for my Distinguished Rifleman's badge. I have been chasing those 12 points for a long time........

Tim just got here from Texas and we are going to check zeros tomorrow at FWRR. I didn't make the Garand match last Saturday, I had to work. Tim makes the M1 Buddy. I am sure he brought some with him. You want me to get one from him?

Long range is in a couple of weeks.
