[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 804161, member: 11717"] I went with a PTG one piece bolt with tactical knob and had the smith tig weld it swept back. Went with a Saco extractor - you might consider an M16 extractor. Also replaced the firing pin with a PTG and speed lock spring. Also replaced the recoil lug with a pinned heavy duty lug. No need for an extended mag box with a 30-06. Also went with a Jewel trigger. Hard to go wrong with any good custom match grade barrel maker. There are a number of them. I decided on a Brought 5C. 5C barrels are supposed to give you a little more velocity. I recommend a 10 twist for shooting heavier high BC bullets. After I put a few break-in rounds through it,it will get sent H&M for Black Nitriding which is a better and tougher finish than anything out there by far and makes for little fouling and easy cleaning.
