I bought a TL3 today! I have wanted one for a bit but I have a few questions.
Barrels I currently have with a savage barrel nut setup. 6.5 creedmoor savage varmint contour, 243 AI Savage varmint contour, 204 Ruger same contour.
Barrels I want that will be TL3 shouldered: 7mm SS light Palma, 223 savage varmint and a short barrel 6.5 or small 7mm for suppressor and lightish weight hunting.
First, and I think I know the answer, all these cartridges will feed in either a 308, 223 or WSM magazine? I am pretty sure it will but not positive.
Second I was thinking a Hawkins M5 DBM. Any opinions or suggestions on DBM setup. It will be my first, all other builds are BDL or blind mag.
Finally stock. I am thinking either a PRS1 or a EH1A? I don't want a chassis. I assume I can fit all my barrels in that stock, if not I can buy a second stock. Website says will accept #7 contour. I am not sure I know what they mean by #7 as there are many different #7 contours depends on whose #7 they refer too. Figure I would call unless someone here knew.
Intended purpose for varmint weight barrels are for plinking, shooting steel or killing varmints. Other barrels are for hunting. I think the gun will weigh around 9 with a light barrel and 11 or so with the varmint barrels.
If you see a major flaw that I am overlooking let me know, thanks.
