[QUOTE="mightymouse, post: 2799249, member: 15253"] I've just about finished my long desired scout rifle project. Ever since reading Col. Cooper's articles on the subject back in the eighties, I've wanted to build one of these, and, while it took some 30 years to get around to it, it is mostly done. An FR-8 Spanish Mauser in 7.62 x 51mm provided the foundation to build upon, and I've added the Hogue synthetic stock, Timney adjustable trigger, XS scout scope mount, and, today, the Leupold 2.5 x 28mm scout scope. Her first outing with the new scope should be this weekend. If you're a scout rifle fan, post your pics/stories/experiences here!
