[QUOTE="Quick Karl, post: 141284, member: 7237"] <font color="blue">Jimm, Thanks for the info. 4 to 6-weeks was the quoted estimated time for the action. The barrel twist was Gary’s (Schneider) recommendation for the Berger 95gr Match VLD’s I am planning on sending through the barrel – I like varmint & predator shooting, as well as punching tiny holes in paper, and as I told Gary, I was thinking 600 yards would be about max. – I figure he knows what’s best for his barrels so I deferred to his expertise on the twist. I have a McMillan A2 on order (going to take a while to get since McMillan is so backed-up) and figure I’ll go for a Jewell Trigger and a Gentry 3-position safety [url="http://huntamerica.com/gentrycustom/mcart/index.cgi?code=3&cat=2"]http://huntamerica.com/gentrycustom/mcart/index.cgi?code=3&cat=2[/url] (because I like firing pin safeties) and a Badger Ordinance Detachable Magazine Trigger guard depending on magazine legnth. I have a Ken Farrell base and rings on a 300WM so I’ll probably go with the Farrell rings for this one but I am still up in the air on a Leupold Mark 4. Now all I have to do is wait… It should be a good 300 to 400-yard prairie dog sniping rifle. :-D Thanks, Karl</font> [/QUOTE]
