when i build a gun i make a bullet length gage out of the one inch barrel stub all you have to do is load a round and place in gage and take a measurement then that will give you the overall length for that bullet

I had never heard of it either. I never knew there were so many different reamers for the .308!

I'll be interested to see how that works! Is it just a clone of the chamber?

I bet that barrel won't vibrate against the stock. You got to shave some weight? Are you talking about you or the gun?

Once you get it, I'll be glad to shoot the first 1,000 rounds or so through it.

That's not nice! I bet Mrs SGMJody wouldn't like to hear you talking about me that way!

I've shot enough through your guns, so I really couldn't say much!

Why not leave it as an "open class" rifle??? We've got the rest.

You're going to be ready to compete in any of them come February.

mstrophyhunter - Thanks. From what I can see in the picture, you did a very good job for jbp. The rest is up to him.

Nice looking gun. I was glad to get a chance to meet you the other day, but didn't get a chance to ask you about the other guns I have been thinking about. I'll put up a new thread or pm you I wanted to ask you about the 300 whisper, blackout, and 7.62 covert.
