New match upper on the way..................

[Cledus J. Crabb]

Well, I bit the bullet and opened my wallet.
I ordered a flat top match upper from White Oak Precision, delivery can be expected in 8 or 9 weeks.
26 inch freefloated stainless Kreiger barrel, 1X7.
Also got the Handle-on-carrier option as I wanna be squared away if I change to an adjustable buttstock.
Got it all black, no wild colors....(I'd rather concern myself with turning in a decent score and not showing off the artsy, creative, and expressive inner me.)
I'm looking at the Scott Riles front sight in 22mm.
Don't quite know what I'll get for a rear sight yet. Lots to look at. Warner, RPA, Centra. Phoenix Precision looks well built and I've read a few articles about them.
Reckon they'll let me in at Reading if I got this kind of hardware?

You'll be good to go at Reading Cledus. Let me know when you are geared up and ready to go.

Derek,
You don't realize how you just inspired me to open my wallet a little wider and go for a new Kowa 821 and stand........maybe even a mat!

It's going to get expensive. www.jarheadtop.com is a good place for Kowa scopes. Jim can set you up with a payment plan if you want to spread out the price over 4 months.

My Ray Vin scope stand and Kowa 821M/27X just arrived this week. I took the combo along with a "used" target down to the highschool track, hung the target on the fence on one end of the field and looked at it with the scope at various distances. I could see the .22 bullet holes way out past the 200 yd. mark, which made me happy.
Called O K Weber this afternoon and ordered my sights for the match upper as well.
Hope I can get this deal squared away without goin' too far into the hole.
Still hafta get a mat and stool yet.
Does the madness ever end?
