[QUOTE="nksmfamjp, post: 1702511, member: 1951"] I have a Savage 12 BVSS 300 wsm that gives me ~ 0.75 moa groups at 100 yds in its current form...laminate stock...14 lbs I would like to modify it to be more of a 10-12lb long range hunting rifle capable of under 0.5” @ 100 groups....0.3” would be ideal though. I think this means install a good prefit barrel, chassis, trigger upgrade with AICS mags and finally a good brake or long term a suppressor. First, I’m wondering if you know where I can get a gunsmith to build me a fully chambered 300 WSM barrel for me to install? I would like a Kreiger or Proof blank, heavy varmint (4-5lbs at 26”), muzzle threads....Option #2 looks like I can order that from McGowen or X-Caliber for $400ish this weekend. How can I get what I want....ideally under $600? Also, anybody running the Oryx chassis? I’m really put off by the lack of side mount QD’s on this thing! Any other issues? Otherwise, it looks great! Might have to fit a real recoil pad on it for a 300! Do these things work, or do I really need to drop a $1000? Also, I’m thinking I would put the APÁ Little Bastard brake on this. Other better options? Please help! [/QUOTE]
