[QUOTE="Paparock, post: 213747, member: 106235"] [b].338/375 for an olde[/b] I prefer manually operated rifles, larger calibers and I would have the rifle inside and out coated to help facilitate corrosion resistance, self lubrication, and reliability. I have enjoyed my custom .375 H&H bolt action and I would like to have something different now. I have always thought about doing something different with a Browning BPR if I found one. I have owned a BAR and it was nice but for I want to do with it I just would not trust an auto under those conditions. I want to put a 20” heavier weight match grade barrel on it without a muzzle break. My plans are for a faster handling pack with moderate reach out to 250 yards or so for use primarily toward the heavier weight bullets in the caliber. I’ll find some good solid laminated wood for a new stock. You see I want this thing for use in bad weather costal conditions where it might get sprayed with saltwater occasionally and will definitely get rained on as a sort of all around carry rifle for the British Columbia area. So you see I want to customize it to fit me as I’m a little big at 6’5” 300lbs, so average rifle stocks are usually a little short for me and I’m wanting to set it up as a bear rifle with a lower power scope with fast release scope mounts (eyes aren’t what they were in my younger days) “rustproofed” tuned action plus exterior, and trigger job, the works.
