Ultra light tactical 308 custom

ejg

Unique ultra light tactical rifle. I built this rifle with long range hunting or target shooting in mind, the PSE E-Tac stock is the lightest tactical stock we have so far made and made by my son for me. He is by far the best at laying up carbon fibre stocks I know. Stock weighs as in the pic. 828 grams. The advantages of such a lightweight stock are very simple...the rifle is 100% balanced over the bore (with the right scope) and has no muzzle flip in the initial stage of recoil which increases accuracy hugely. ....and lighter to carry.
Dominic Byrne fitted a stainless 1/13 Bartlein medium Palma shortened to 20". Barrel is threaded M15x, oversized recoil lug. All components are fitted as I do all my hunting rifles, AI mag system is epoxy bedded, Action is epoxy bedded, Third Eye tactical 20MOA rail is also epoxy bedded. Timney Trigger.
Stock is fitted with flush cups on the left side, one swivel stud on the bottom front. Colour is "PSE Irish Mix" Bolt handle is fitted with an ultra light solid carbon fibre bolt knob made by my self.
Rifle has been used for testing out to 800m and was used for Sika on the hill. Shot count is at around 200. Total weight with 6.5-20x50 Zeiss Conquest fitted is 4.2kg. Without scope around 3.5kg
Price: 2200 Euro with one 5 shot or 10 shot magazine. (without scope, bipod or Moderator)
Will take a T3 or Remington SA (308 bolt face) trade in.
