Hi fellow fly shooters just to let you know that the loan rifle is now finished, and will be ready to go for the federal cup should anyone want to use it.

Thanks very much to Keith HILLS from KHSG who has kindly donated the first barrel and completed all the smithing work for free as his contribution to the project.

Stuart Elliot of BRT is donating 130gn Bergers for the rifle and this is also a tremendous contribution. I

I am going to post photo's of the rifle for all to see in the rifle building section so i really hope you all check it out. I should have the pictures up by Monday night.

I will start the load development this week and by the way it has been put together i will guarantee that it will be a first class rig.

Action : Barnard S
Trigger : Jewell
Stock: Noye thumbhole laminate

The barrel is a trial so i will keep the make back until it wins a shoot, and for those who use this rifle i wish you the very best in your pursuit of a win, and as such i get beaten by my own rifle then power to you as a shooter......

All the best to you all

Cheers Les
