[QUOTE="Strokerace_dave, post: 267723, member: 11585"] Thanks guys for the reply, I was just thinking about getting a 280 ackley built as soon as I found a donor action. I am glad to see that I can get very close velocities from the Ackley compared to the 7mm mag. Another quick question, I was thinking about going with a #5 contour barrel, in comparison would the barrel be about the same thickness of say a Sendero barrel? I believe specs on the barrel say .750 at the muzzle. I was just wondering if I built it with that barrel would it be too heavy to carry around? and what twist should I go with to shoot all ranges of bullets up to the 168 gr bergers. [/QUOTE]
