I've always had a soft spot for parts bin rifles

Keep us posted on how it shoots.

You know, if you shot it a few times without a muzzle break that would be a pretty impressive thing to add to your man card

rip off the stock and replace it then it would be a little nicer looking. Just my opinion.

If it shoots, the heck with what it looks like or where the parts come from. I would be interested on accuracy after you get it to the range, more because I am curious how that McGowen barrel shoots. I have had some interesting experiences with them.

My buddy took his dad's Ruger in .338 RUM to the range a couple weeks back. No muzzle brake, standard contour barrel, light. Needless to say after 2 rounds I had enough. This was after 80 rounds of .308 but that thing definitely didn't tickle.

If you build all that, I'd be proud. Actually,the wood is refreshing! Perhaps you can share with us a break down of your cost per item. I'd say job well done!
