Something miraculous happened to the BUG (Butt Ugly Gun)

It's final configuration added a bayonet but suddenly it transformed from a short barrelled 32 Miller short into a 30-40 Krag. The Krag barrel was freed up when the 40-65 barrel I had sitting around got fitted to the CCDST coil spring action that the 30-40 was on.  It is the same ratty pitted receiver, but actually might get taken to the range more often in its current cambering.

I actually only shot the ugly stock gun once a few months back and the results were not  that good.  Shooting 32 Miller on a high wall is a pain anyway. I may try the stock on another rifle just because I can.
