[QUOTE="codyadams, post: 1576843, member: 87243"] So my build modified slightly!! After contacting the owner of Brux, he said they won't be running .270 barrels until March, so after more research I have decided to go with a #3 instead of #4, to save a touch of weight. Still going to have the same brake, but it will just have a slight taper. I am really hoping I can get it down to an even 8lbs or slightly less ready to hunt....I will have the shank cut short, this will not be a high round count rifle so I'm not worried about setting the throat back. What does everyone think I can get an HBN coated 170 going in a 23" barrel? I'm hoping for a comfortable 3000 fps, my cousin is shooting 180 VLD's at 3060 from his 7 mag and it sure puts a whack on critters, I'm betting this will be pretty similar!! [/QUOTE]
