    Re: Any need to lapp 2 piece Nightforce steel rings? You don't think a 2 piece base will making loading the gun easier? I agree that the one piece would take care of any alignment issues, but was wondering about obstructing loading. Thanks.

    How to ship to custom builder?

    I am starting my first custom gun and have a question about shipping? I have the action that is attached to the factory barrel, and a custom barrel to ship along. My builder suggested shipping both items in one box through ups. Any suggestions or comments would be helpful.

    Barrel Decisions

    Re: Barrel Decisions Sounds good. I think I will go with the #5 fluted. Is a fluted barrel as good as a un-fluted?

    Barrel Decisions

    I still can't make up my mind for my custom 300 win mag. I am tossing around a #4 contour that weighs 3 lbs 14oz, #5 fluted that weighs the same as the #4, and a straight #5 that weighs 4 lbs 8oz. This is going to be a hunting rifle, but I want to be able to accurately shoot 800-1000 yards...

    Still deciding on barrel contour.

    I am building a custom 300 win mag. and am trying to decide between a number 4 and 5 contour. I like the weight savings of a 4, but am I sacrifing too much weight? I am a little concerned about muzzle jump with a lighter 4 contour barrel. For a good all around hunting/long range gun, what is...

    barrel contour

    I am building a custom 300 win and am trying to decide between a 4 and 5 contour barrel from Rock Creek. The other option I was looking at is a 5 fluted to save weight. I want it to be accurate off the bench, but is going to primarily be a hunting rifle. Weight is an issue, but I am a bigger...

    Remington Bottom metal

    I am starting a custom build and have a couple questions. Is the standard bottom metal and hinge plate from a remington for a 300 win mag in a Mcmillan stock ok, or should I look at aftermarket. What is the best bang for your buck for aftermarket bottom metal?

    Stock choice

    Re: Stock choice I appreciate your response. Do you think that stock will have a high enough cheek for my Nightforce without having to raise my head? I am 6'3 and 220lbs, so I should be able to handle a good sized rifle anyways. I am new to the whole custom thing and really want to get it...
