[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 735475, member: 30902"] Fair point. The heavy bull barrel takes a long time to cool down but it also takes a while to heat up and so far it continues to hold good groups even when pretty warm. When target shooting it is somewhat difficult not to take advantage of that and the magazine capacity and over do it. For anyone else considering building one for a varmint gun the only thing I'd say is that the 24" bull has it's advantages but it makes for a very heavy and front heavy platform that is no fun at all to pack for long distances but that disadvantage of course also lends to steadiness and with a decent brake even at 100yds you can see your impacts. If I were only going to have one and do it again I'd go with a little lighter contour and a 20" deep fluted barrel for the sake of ease of carry and weight savings because with this case size the additional length isn't really giving much of a gain in velocity so it'd be worth the trade off.
