Prairie Class

Yes, it is a lovely shot of my bald head . . . and my Bonsai Tree . . .

Actually, the star of the photo is the new "Prairie Class" prototype.

Ready for some serious long range work

3 Pc. stock set.

 

Do you remember that nine pound chunk of steel in the photo a few months ago?

Well, here's the same pc. of steel. Receiver probably now weighs about 2 1/2" pounds. Everything is integral to this special prototype. This is definitely doing it the hard way.

 

Center panel is "leather textured" and the Barnes "Hallmark" is struck in the oval.

 

Bi-Pod hard point mount is provided in the laminated forearm. Plenty of room left for a "Palm" rest stance for a standing shot.

 

The "Soul" of the pc. is in the details. These touches take serious time.

 

Butt stock is on an outrigger.

 

Pistol Grip with hammer cocking stud above. Power is adjustable up to about 250 ft. lbs. in this "One Off" 32 caliber pcp.
