Pictures of my Falcon Actioned rimfire BR rifle

[Kent Owens]

I'm going to attempt to post a few pics of my almost completed Falcon actioned BR rifle. I've yet to complete the stock finish, and I'm a terrible photographer, so please take that into consideration. Several folks have asked what it looked like, so I'll post a few pics.
I like it, it shoots as well as any rifle I've ever shot, right from the start.

That is a nice looking rifle. The pics look great and so does the stock!

Thanks Jeff. I like the stock. It's not something I usually put on a rimfire BR rifle, but it tracks very well and well you can see where the balance point is from where it's resting on the bag in the pic. The stock is one that I got from Dave Burton that he had on hand, that had no holes or bolt handle slot cut in it, and I still owe him a sporter barrel for it, when my barrel order finally comes in. It was a generic stock for any round action. I filled the void in the tang area with a small inlay so there wouldn't be a hollow spot there behind the Falcon tang.
In my opinion these type stocks work as well or better than the ugly ones

I'll probably put an ebony butt plate on it when I get the ebony, and get the time.

I was going to ask about that light spot, nice touch. If you do any type of Tactical shooting, run over to Leonard's shop and check out my Manner's T5A. He's bedding my Nesika 338 LG barreled action into it. You can shoot it too if he's got any ammo. There may be just a hair more recoil than your Falcon if you leave the brake on.

I need to go over there this afternoon. Those big rifles make too much noise for me But they do some amazing things at long range. I like all types of rifles, even the old Kentucky flintlocks. Now thsoe were works of art for their time and considering the tools they had to work with.
