Thanks AJ, you have one sweet looking rig. I love the color of the stock and the Matte finish on the metal. It looks real cool!!!

What bullets are you planning on using. I remeber Kirby talking about a 265grn Wildcat bullet that had better BC than the 300grn MK, and I believe he said he was pushing it at 3500+fps or faster. I can't remeber the actual info, but it looked pretty impressive. I also heard Hornady was designing a 338 A-Max bullet. I think it was either a 250 or 275grn A-Max I am not sure. The 265grn Wildcat bullet sounded awesome.

Anyhow, let me know what bullet you are planning on shooting, and the types of velocities you are expecting. Kirby sure does some good work.

I like the muzzle brake, that thng looks BAD ASS!!!
