or bubba'd. Purchased it for $85.00 to make a coyote hunter out of it. Turned out pretty good. Still have to do some tweaking, but not much.
Added:
New ATI Mossy Oak Break Up stock
New ATI weaver mount & bent bolt handle
Low weaver heavy mounts
Cut 6inches off the barrel and re-crowned on a lathe
Welded the bolt handle on instead of screwing it on
Drilled and tapped the receiver on a Bridgeport mill for the scope mount (rounds will have to be loaded one at a time) holds 5.
4X32 Crossman airgun scope
Mossy Oak Break Up sling on it's way
Only shot it at 40yards so far today. First shot was dead on horizontal, and just 2" low vertically. All bullets touched w/non-corrosive Russian rounds.
