Winmagnum, Nice thing about a one room shack, no room for trouble makers! Probably not going to see pictures as I am computer stupid, if I was better at this computer I'd have pics all over the place of my cabin I built this fall! Wayne

Buffalobob, The reamer I borrowed needs to have the throat lengthened to seat bullets way out so not to use powder space. It is my hope 208 gr. Hornady A-maxes will shoot really well,If not 200 gr,Nosler AB's are my second choice. By the way it it chambered,did it this afternoon, now for the...

Have had this project in the works for about 8 months, (buying parts) barrel is now in the lathe! Waiting for warm up,cold in my garage! 700 rem Mag action Brux ss 30 cal. 10 twist, finnish at 27.5 in. H-S Presicion stock Cal.300 wheatherby,long throated for 200+ gr. bullets reason...

Mid Way has a 30BR for sale removable pilot,$116. plus shipping. I just finished a chamber with it came out well. Made by ptg. Wayne

Newbie Alot of good advice, that's the problem! Cheapest way, Stevens actoin and build from there,next,buy Savage heavy bbl in 308 and learn to shoot it! Next, as one said 300 mag, recoil may be a factor but a vg choice. Wayne

Jansen, Barrel life is dependent on many things,round count is only one,rate of fire,(target rifle)barrel steel is another. Barrels on target rifles can last from 400 to 1200 rds.,f-class barrels fired in 20 shot matches plus sighters get real hot and normally wear out faster! On a...

Started reloading at age 26 in 1974, hunting age 12 1960! Long range shooting 2002, have not shot anything live beyond 400yds ,still hoping! Wayne

ATH, A product made by wipe-out called carb-out is made for this type of problem. Supposed to be very agressive on carbon,will try this myself when I run out of the old G M top engine cleaner! Wayne

Try using a carbon cutter at first, use plastic bore brushes!

Body of 284 is to big for the other (smaller) dies to work!

Coyboy, Do you shoot a lot of F-class ? Ever shoot Lodi ? We have a 4x 600 8-17-08 your welcome(anyone else also) to show up! Wayne

338\284 Possum, Built this cal for a buddy, very good cal. Relatively fast,and accurate! If I needed a bigger cal. than 284 win I would not hesitate to build a 338\284. Wayne

Hi, Exsist in Janesville,live at least mentally in western Richland County! Got 36 acres near Boaz. Wayne

STEVE, Good for most hunting conditions, limited long range because of energy. As for brass Nosler makes 280AI brass,neck it downto 264. Wayne

Don't have any experience with 338/06,but would not give up on it, as it should do a very good job. Built a similar rifle 338/284 that has performed very well(maybe even better)200gr.@2900+ 250gr.@2750! Wayne
