    338 lm build questions

    I have been blessed with a deal($250) on a new mcmillian htg stock. It has a barrel channel for a douglas #5. Is that enough barrel for a 338lm? I bought an action from a hide member to build off of, but I think I'm going to go with a Stiller instead so it will be back for sale soon.
