That is some seriously nice work right there! A very nice custom. Very impressed with the checkering and the inlaid forend piece. Did you also do the action mods? I did a blind magazine .308 on a small ring '98 about 20 years ago. Light, not bad gun, but nothing like yours. Congrats on the most excellent work. Hope it shoots like you want it to. (I'd guess it does, based on all the other work I see here.)
