    How much recoil for a 300 WM

    Well speak too me. I would rather continue the build then to try to sell this stock then try to find one not already cut for the magnum.

    How much recoil for a 300 WM

    LoL bro, I would even want to shoot next me with a brake either. That's what I thought. Damn it, its such a nice McMillan stock.

    How much recoil for a 300 WM

    I have to make a choice of selling a nice stock or build a big rifle. How hard does a 300 WM kick compared to a 308, heavy weight gun? I already use some of the powders for my 243 so it comes down to how hard it will beat up a 53 year old man with a lot of spinal arthritis and how much it cost...

    Gunsmithing Barrel channel too large

    I don't really want a big rifle, but if I did, what would be an economical round that won't beat the shit out of an old man? I will load for it so take that into consideration. I can work with the current barrel channel.

    Gunsmithing Barrel channel too large

    Thanks Chad. I was just contacted by Jeff over at CDI when I ordered the bottom metal for this build. He stated that it was inletted for a magnum. I'm going 243 so according to Jeff it will have a hole in the rear of the inlet area. Should I sell this stock, or can you fix this as well Chad?

    Gunsmithing Barrel channel too large

    I was using someone else barrel channel specs. I got the correct ones and that will work better, I was using shilen and he used a rock creek. Way different contours.

    Gunsmithing Barrel channel too large

    He would end up getting the rest to assemble and rebarrel as well. Not that I couldn't some of it but I want the paint and all to look right and that I can't do very well. Its a savage so please no flack about sending it to a smith.

    Gunsmithing Barrel channel too large

    1.20 channel and a .8 barrel. Sounds like it would look goofy. Anyone got a pic of such a setup? Won't knock till I see it. I've got a mill and I've done things like inletting before and its turned out well, but they were on lower end stuff and I want this one really nice.

    Gunsmithing Barrel channel too large

    I bought a Mcmillan A5 never used stock from a member here. He had the channel cut to a bull 8 contour. I don't really want to run a barrel that big. Can the channel be filled and redone, and if so who could do such a job? TIA
