Update: the work has been completed. Considerable trigger work, followed by resoldering and repeated cut-solder-and-try to regulate.

I am very excited; I fly to Darwin to pick it up on Saturday. The load he chose to regulate it for was 300gn jacketed HP, with 85gn AR2213sc and no filler. 1680 fps and maybe 2"-3" group for the two barrels at 50m.

I am a little shocked at the cost. My fault though; I didn't press for updates as he went along, and I knew it was a costly job when I gave it to him. If it had been quoted at the amount I imagine I could have sold this rifle and together with the quoted money bought a later BPE double that was already shooting together - but this is the path I went on so I am just going to enjoy the results.

This is going to be something good.
