Anybody get one of that short run back on New Year's Day 2016 ?
We're closing on the next run. Costa owners should watch for an email asking if they'd like to call dibs on their Costa's serial number. More to follow. ML |

Glad to see you're putting those rings I sold you to good use! Looks great!

Still waiting on FDE Heavy #412 to go with my Costa #412
Is Mark test firing all the FDEs or just the ones with scope packages? Anyone get one without scope package that Mark test fired ? |

Mine get to the FFL Monday, won't be able to pick up until Tuesday... the suspense is killing me (I know, first world problems)....

#380 made it home today. No time for a range day right now but possibly next Sunday I'll try and beat the .481" test target.

341 in safe next to little brother 341. Waiting on the 260 barrel for my ultimate LR hunter. The BC of the 142gr Accubond LR is .719 and the 129gr is .581. Can't wait to start running these down the pipe.

Picked up #445 today from my local FFL. No time for pictures yet. I did take a peek at the test target: 0.221 MOA. I don't think i will be able to outshoot the shootist on this one.
Can I get a "I got close to shooting like the shootist" dillo? Rifle looks awesome and I will find some time to take pictures with the costa #445. |

I retired the Heavy to a friend. Just upgraded account again and noticed Avitar it carried over from a few years back. Need to kit out the tAR and do a refresh. Just have the two. Thanks for the heads up.
