Well, like the title says, I'm hoping for advice on a rifle.
I bought some parts for a wildcat 7mm chamber I'm planning on making, but with a long wait for reamer production I'm thinking about having something else put together. Truth be told, I bought a barrel on the spur of the moment and I don't think it's quite "right" for the wildcat.
*Disclaimer* Before I go any further, I just read my first paragraph and it gave me the small impression that I may have some idea about this whole gun building process. Make no mistake!!! I am a dummy with a bit of cash to spend, and a passion for hunting and shooting.. That's all! I've never had a custom gun made in my life, the wildcat chamber is largely borrowed advice from somebody else whose judgement I trust.
Ok that said here's where I'm at:
-I have a new Defiance LA with a 20moa rail.
-A new 26" Rock Creek carbon fiber barrel blank in 7mm with an 1-8.7" twist. It is currently getting a 3 gill "Near" muzzle break put on.
-New HS Precision bottom metal with removable 3.6" clip.
That's it. No stock, no trigger, no optics.
Simple question. If you personally had the above components what would you chamber the barrel in? Why?
Thank you,
Kevin.
