[QUOTE="John Klingenberg, post: 1703371, member: 107749"] I have almost exactly what youre trying to build in a different caliber. The recoil pad is pretty substantial on the Oryx. I did not like the pistol grip but any AR grip will fit. No side slots but theres a ton of offset M-Lok style adaptors to put a sling where you need it. You'll be needing AI style mags that are going to cost you unless they feed fine from a 308 size mag. I'm waiting on a pre fit from Hart. Don't laugh at that skinny barrel in my pics. It shoots like a match barrel. (Box stock Savage barrel in 223) They told me 8 weeks when everyone I called said 20++ weeks. Northland, Kreiger, Shilen, McGowen and several others are all the same wait. Any of them will make you a knock out great barrel if you have the patience. I have several of each. PIC NOTES: The orange pasters are 1 inch across. The 4 shot group above the one pic is a 69 grain Sierra behind H414, the group a little right in the other pic is a 53 grain Sierra behind H-380 at 275 yards. Im waiting on that Hart barrel in 224 Valkyrie with a 6 twist. Hart will do any contour if you just tell him what the specs are. If you send a few of your favorite cartridges sans powder he will chamber accordingly. Mine in bead blasted stainless' light palma countour, threaded muzzle at 24" is 550.00 [/QUOTE]
