Love the stock on that, mate. Details?

Also, how'd you like the SU16?
I wanted the same rifle in .17hornet but couldn't find one. Fellows on GOC(gun owners of canada forum) pointed this one out to me in .223, with a leupold vx3 6.5-20x scope and what a good price it was, so I bought it.
It's a Savage Model 25. Never got to shoot it yet, due to the weather. Stiff action on the rifle.

The SU16 never failed me, but I seen too many of them with cracked receivers. I did not trust the rifle. I would likely never buy another Kel-tec. Not for the price they sell for in Canada. The su16 was $800 before taxes & shipping here.
Wasn't very accurate either, but I never reloaded for it, and only tried a few different factory loads.
I rather have a mini14 then a su16.

That's good to hear, I'm getting a mini14 shipped to me next week.

Might have to get a Savage next, that thing is beautiful.

You a terrorist.

Very nice. I'm on a forum called Texas Gun Talk. I can't believe all the stuff they do (or their personalities.) Diane Feinstein, rot in hell.

very nice....that's the same .17 i'm most likely going to end up getting. planning on putting the same scope on it as well.b from my research, most of the forum talk agrees that it's the best bang for your buck .17 out there right now.

i'm thinking about trying one of those 80% lowers myself. i've inherited a bench top mill from wife's grandpa. i've seen the kits with the jigs so that you can cut out all the metal yourself.

My $13 pistol light setup from Amazon.


Mine being my carry, I'm not gonna put it on and take it off all the time. I just wanted it to have it more or less. It's nice tho.
