Nice job! I had this rifle on my radar but ended up buying the Caiman X, since the overall length is 80mm shorter than the Katran C unfolded whilst benefiting from a 520mm barrel and, at least for me, a perfect balance. I never had a rifle in my hand, that shouldered so well.
You may soon be single handily responsible for a population explosion of stock maker hobbyists😁 This Katran furniture is looking good!👍🏼 Now I understand how to get interesting laminate patterns on slab sides using angled cuts👌🏼 I always wondered if the Ataman M2R Ultra-Compact would make a nice target rifle. This Katran C has a similar profile and is about 290 pounds/GBS less. On a side note I found it interesting that Ataman, a Russian company, uses LW barrels and not CZ🤔 It would be wonderful to have one target rifle for each of the great barrel makes (LW match, LW poly, BSA, CZ, FX ST, etc).
Hi Ron the ultra-compact would make a great sub12 all rounder. Should be able to keep it really pared back and small. I've a few walther barrels to modify to try in the katran, it will be interesting to compare them to the cz. I'd like to try the 15mm cz aswell in comparison. Hopefully I can get more of you into the shed to have a go with the woodwork 😉
Great mate. Great. I've been shooting one of these today. As I said, innovation and original design, creativity beyond Air Arms. Accuracy as good as legacy German manufacturers. Not a popular view. I'm getting one. Will you do the wood.
Hi jake, I dont really take on commission builds for the ar type stuff as they are way more time consuming that most imagine to do properly.but we could probably work something out if you are not in a rush 😉

Nice one, like the way you cut the timber for the hamster 😀

Very nice informative vid.
Looking forward to more.
Would be interested to see it with one of your benchrest palm grips, but looking good in the blue lam , hamster really finishes it off nicely
Ive a few more grip styles to test out but it's looking promising so far 😀
Looking forward to the testing on a HFT course.
I'm enjoying this one Jon, very different to my usual and very fun
Really nice work, do you make your own blanks or purchase the black stock? Any recommendations for making some? Or places to order from?
hi, can you link where to buy this rifle
