Almost a year ago, I started collecting parts and pieces for what I have been calling my ultimate hunting rifle.
CMT billet receivers, *** 18” melonite 6.8 SPC barrel and super bolt, BRT covert comp, Ace skeleton stock, MI SS II fore end, Wilson Combat adjustable gas block, PSA NiB Bolt Carrier, Redfield Revolution 4x12 scope in P.E.P.R. mount.
Once I got everything I wanted, I decided to try my hand at Hydrographic printing so that I could camo part of the rifle. I could have taken it to someone to have it done, but I love to try new things and I figure that if someone else can do it, so can I. I started out practicing on a couple magazines since if I screwed them up, I wouldn’t be out anything expensive.
On Memorial Day, we were spending a quiet day at home, so I decided it was time to spend some time assembling my new toy. I ended up finishing almost everything and am now ready for the range. I am proud of how everything came out and the way it looks. Now, if it shoots the way it is supposed to in my mind, I will actually have my ultimate hunting rifle and “go to” gun for most of what I hunt.
