[QUOTE="Alibiiv, post: 1532921, member: 69192"] I wasn't whether that was the case or not. The gunsmith who I am using is Olson Gunsmithing out of Montana. He comes with great credentials for working on Rugers, I am sure that he knows what needs to be done with the build. I have spoken to him once on the phone, he suggested some stuff to do with the build that I didn't think of. I did not now that it was possible to pillar bed a Ruger, he said that he does it all of the time. I have to talk with him one more time on the build, not certain about barrel length. Thinking about the 26 inch barrel over the 24 in barrel?? I will be using this rifle for some long range deer hunting in Maine on pasture land or power lines. I've shot one deer at 450 yards with one outfitter who leased a farm during the hunting season. It will be ground blind hunting for me because of all the sins that I committed to my body at an earlier age have now caught up to me; walking comes at a premium price!! I'm sure that many of on this forum who are getting long in the tooth can attest to that!!:mad::mad: I tell everyone who is interested that from 40 to 50 years of age is a quantum leap.
