    7 Mag or 264 Win Mag for build?

    Re: 7 Mag or 264 Win Mag for build? you can always load the 7mm RM down to .280 velocities if you wish. i'm reluctant to trade performance for economy when it comes to rifles, though. i do run .264s though, but an emotional attatchment to the cartridge and a pile of once fired brass from...

    Build a 223 rig. How would you do it?

    Re: Build a 223 rig. How would you do it? i'd do a #2 Brux 1-8" cut to 20" on a R700 and drop it into a first generation TI take-off stock. i have a few .223s and the light/handy ones seem to trump the heavy pigs.

    Rough "out the door" price for a custom barrel?

    Re: Rough "out the door" price for a custom barrel? IIRC Pac-nor has $600 listed on their site for one of their barrels chambered and installed. bead blasting is a great way to finish SS barrels cheap.
