I might decide to leave this one with no swedge. Can't make up my mind :confused::o

Forward weight is good weight on a chopper (IMHO).

Yep, it sure is.... but the Tigress also needs to be fast and nimble so that it can change directions on the fly. I think I will swedge it because this is the thinner version and I want it to be fast ;) I have a fatter .270 Tigress blank that I will leave off the swedge because it will be a long heavy duty chopper.
 
Got to love the Tigress :thumbup:

Great work Ban, like usual :D

I think that's a good idea :thumbup: Makes sense on the thinner stock (how thin are we talking)?
 
Put on the large sharpened swedge earlier today. Been Heat Treated and sitting in cryo tank now.
