Picked up my Shultz Victory yesterday!

That is a stunning stock you have got! Now just be careful not to scratch lt too quickly. Regards SBM
Phone call from Hannah at McAvoy's so I did the 200 mile round trip & after a little lapping on the scope rings...

It's fecking gorgeous!

The trigger's feels just right; I'm guessing between 2½ & 3lbs & the bolt us silky smooth & glides in & out like it's on ice.
I'll probably take it out & zero it on Monday.

I bet I ding it in pretty short order - that's why I wasn't allowed nice things as a nipper. :(

Apart from that; I'm going to get an identical rifle in 22-250 with a standard stock for foxing & another in .270 before I head off to SA for a plains game hunt next year.
I know the possibility is there to switch barrels but then there's the optics to consider - wouldn't want the 6x42 for foxes or the S&B 5-25x56 for stalking.

I'm itching to get in a shot or two...

That is lovely. Get yourself outside and shoot the damned thing man. It won't get dented by stopping in the cabinet ha ha.

Seriously though, report back and let us know how it shoots. Very well I should imagine.
 
That is a lovely bit of kit :D

With the wood I've found that if it does get a bit dinged or faded a quick rub down with some linseed oil sorts it right out and has it looking like new, and you can put a cloth soaked in hot water on small knocks to get them out. But ultimately they are a tool to be used and some battle scars give character! :)

If you're getting another one for Africa, get a Win Mag ;) Go on, you know you want one!
 
I’m sure I’m not the only one that doesn’t like wooden stocks like these at all, but I am fairly sure I’m the only one stupid enough to say so. Call me a heathen, you’d be right. Hope it shoots well, don’t be shy to use it properly.

Similar, I don't mind wood on my shot guns but not on rifles. Any rifles. S&L also have carbon stocks for their tactical range. As soon as one is looking for performance and reliability wood is out the window... just about in any dynamic equipment.

Have you got link for the tactical stocks / range ?


I love look of the wood but if o had something like that I’d knock hell out of it just in & out the cabinet !

Nope love it but too scared to use it


Tupperware stocks for me on rifle

I did see a rifle of Russel Galls and it was in a McMillan lazzeroni thumbhole bit was the
“Mcwoody” wood effect & he stuck an orange silvers recoil pad on it .....
I thought it was stunning
