[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1542473, member: 12995"] Nice!!! I need to put a new stock on mine. I'm running the same EGW rail, and a Rifle Basix trigger spring (wish Timney would make a drop-in trigger). I rebarreled my ABII about 5 years ago, and it shoots great, but thinking I would like to put a Proof CF barrel on it just because I've always wanted one of those rare 2000-2002 model Browning Composite Stalkers with the factory Christensen Arms CF barrels on them. I used to sell guns back then, but never could afford one. As for building, my smith didn't hesitate to build mine. He said most smiths are just scared and won't touch them because of rumors of the actions breaking when trying to remove the factory barrel, because they put some sort of loctite-type material on the barrel threads at the factory. He said he heated mine up with a heat-gun for a little while to get the loc-tite type stuff flexible again, and then mine spun-off like every 700 he's ever worked on. [/QUOTE]
