This wood is hard to stain(well for me it was)So the stock man used a wood dye sprayed on very fine then a coat of sealer everyday for 4 days then a coat of clear everyday for 3 days. From start of scraping off old finish to bare wood till back in my hands around 1 and a half weeks.

What is the total weight including the empty magazine installed? That looks like a 24" barrel, that'd add some weight.
 
21 3/8"
I have not weight it yet but I think it is well under 7.5lbs if I have room I will put a variable scope.
 
I am looking everywhere for some digital scales that would be good for this Don Stith had told me one time to go to Staples but everytime I go they are sold out I am thinking if I have to order online what is the best route to go?
 
Not sure on the scales. They're all different prices too? Nice job on the stock! You'll enjoy that rifle. I think you'll like it, it'll work as well as any. Gordon does very good work, and turns out some fine sporters. The barrel looks bigger on the front end than at the breech in the picture:).
 
I did not think you could just walk into a post office with a gun?
 
Yes you can. I do it ship them all the time. But to weigh one, I carry it in a case. They have no problem and end up asking about.

If you are going to ship a gun (long gun only) USPS is damn hard to beat.

I guess it depends on the post office:) Some places they'd probably shoot enough holes in you that you'd resemble a screen door. I'd go in ask ask them first, just to be sure.
 
" SWEET" nice nug :D
Looks like its gonna be fun ta pull the trigger ! ! ! ! !
Thanks for the goodies on the rifle.
Very Very Nice.
 
website my weigh for a scale

not sure if sold in the usa, search competiiton br forum for past posts on scales,
choose the one that will weigh up to 15 or 20 pounds in .2 oz increments, that way you can weigh a 10 1/2 pound gun.

they are only about 60 bucks apiece shiipped and are way (weigh) better than staples, i found out the hard way, my gun was over at a major competition, lucky I brought 3 rifles

The worst thing you can do is WIN and find out you are 100th of a pound over weight!!! Most of the places where I shoot they weigh in 100ths of a pound on electronic scales. It pays to be an .oz under weight if at all possible. If I go to a new range I always weigh all my rifles before the match to make sure they make weight there.
 
changed my life

so in centerfire, I am usually about 4 oz under or try to be, then I dont worry if I need ot change rings or mirage shield, or scopes

learn from our mistakes

Local grocery stores have certified scales. I've weighed guns there after asking. Never been refused, helps if you actually buy some groceries there occasionally.;) Come to think of it, 10 1/2 lbs of beef costs nearly what the rifle is worth these days.:(

Merry Christmas to all.

Find a box that fits

Go in and have them weigh the box.
Go back out and put the rifle in the box.
Go back in and weigh the box.
Do the math.

I would surely think that if the rifle made weight on grocery store scales, it would make weight anywhere. Not likely those grocery scales would read "light".
