You have some skills in the making of sundries too.

Nice rifle mate but like Mevo I was wondering on the bipod make. Quite different in the mounting system to the Harris one that Trev gave me?

Love the bag and the box as well well done

looks the same as my Versa-pod

has pan and tilt built int the bi-pod mechanism

Made by the poms for their sniper rifle AFIK and other people liked the idea so it became commercial

G'day missed, got the scopes, Thanks. I cleaned up the Weaver and reblued it and put it on my CZ223 and got her sighted in about 3-4 days ago. Its pretty clear and will do the job. It clears the barrel on the CZ by about 1 mm. :wink:
We'll have to try and have a shoot when you come down Muttang, PM me when your closer. :wink:
