Second Place: "Slade Special Safari Grade" by Markbo:
****************************************
"Slade Special Safari Grade"
Rifle Name--------------------------Owner---------------Builder
"Slade Special Safari Grade"------Markbo--------------Markbo
Build Specifications:
Volquartsen Superlight Aluminum receiver & bolt group (remember this was pre Kidd)
Ruger Factory Trigger group. Full trigger job at 4lbs. Note standard curved trigger.
GM 20" Blued Octagon Sporter Taper barrel
Homemade magazine
Bushnell 3x9 scope in Weaver rings on Volquartsen base
The action is pillar bedded; barrel free floating with my barrel pad just in front the barrel block. It is a solid ½" shooter with CCI Mini Mag - which is all the accuracy I was trying for. I also had Tuck paint the receiver, scope base, trigger group, barrel and even the scope (all metal surfaces except bolt) with automotive paint in Midnight Black. I told him I wanted the blackest black he could find. I think he did just fine.
