I also must thank Mr. Feddersen for a gifted receiver. I finally got around to completing a build using his receiver.
This rifle has a Lilja 20" barrel, KIDD single stage trigger, KIDD bolt and guide rod, cleaning hole drilled, a custom extended bolt handle, extended mag release, Fajen stock, Mueller 4.5-14x 40 APV scope.
I've only done the sight-in work at 25yds, but as expected, single whole results were achieved with SK standard +.
I'm anxious to get it outside at 50 to see how it will perform.
There's a possibility I may put this one on the market for sale after testing. I'm starting to accumulate quite a few now and will need to make some room. If anyone has any potential interest you can PM me for more details.
My only reluctance is the gifted receiver from Mr. Feddersen. My intention is not to make a profit from his generosity, so if I do sell this rifle, I will donate the cost of a receiver to whatever charity he may suggest.

If you chose to let go of it then may I suggest that you raffle it off.
That would possibly get more for it than it's actual value and increase your charity donation while making the rifle more affordable to those that may otherwise not be able to purchase it.

Great idea! - And the winner gets to pick the charity...
My choice would be Saint Jude's Children's Hospital - no connection, just my favorite charity.
Beautiful build pathman, I think I'd keep that one and get rid of something else. I actually quit selling any of my guns. Every one I've sold, I regretted it later. I just gift them to my sons or grandkids now.

Thanks guys, but I think some of you have misunderstood my intention. I said in my original post that I would donate the value of the receiver, not the entire gun.
The reason I suggested Mr. Feddersen pick the charity was because he gifted me the receiver, but if he declines I will choose one.

I think a couple people may have been having a little fun with you. Nice build though, and very generous to donate the cost of the reciever to charity.
Nice build fairly unique .It will be very interesting to see how it performs at 50 yards and what ammo works best .Please post some photos of the target groups or at least let us know how it performed nice rifle
You could raffle the rifle as a whole and still only send the value of the receiver to charity.
Figure out how many tickets you need to sell before setting a drawing date.
