[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 97324, member: 10"] SS7mm, We will see when the bullets hit the paper but things should work very well I suspect! As to the 270 AM, I am currently not chambering the 277 or 7mm in the Savage rifles until I can chamber one and prove that it will handle the increased case diameter of the Lapua case. I am sure it would as this rifle was chambered in the Lazzeroni Patriot and Tomahawk SA magnums which have the same head diameter but just want to prove it to myself first. The contour on this barrel is roughly a #7 ahead of the 8" full diameter barrel shank. I am about to order another contour design from Dan which is basically the same thing but with a #5 contour to drop another pound off the barrel weight. This will happen after I test this design and prove it meets my goals for this design. This V-Block design will handle up to a 1.250" straight cylinder barrel of at least 32" in length with this stock. For a larger diameter 1.350" barrel up to 36" in length I recommend my 10" V-block system which is to large for this stock design. Keep in mind that the A-5 would have to have some serious ballast in the butt stock to balance the rifle. This specific rifle balances about 1.5" ahead of the receiver face which in my opinion is pretty good considering the light weight of the stock and all the metal ahead of this point of the rifle. Will let you know how she shoots. Kirby Allen(50) [/QUOTE]
