    Savage/stevens 555 28ga forcing cone damage

    $75 per barrel I believe. It's worth every penny. I've had the cones lengthened in every shotgun I've owned since the mid 90's.

    Send the barrels to Rob Roberts Custom gunworks and have the forcing cones lengthened. That will solve your problem and make it pattern better as well

    2-stage triggers?

    You don't notice how much the take up is, or I don't anyway. A good 2 stage will have a nice "back wall" so you know once you hit that it's game time.

    Does anyone manufacture a 700/700 clone M5 style bottom metal that mimics the ADL blind magazine?

    McMillan had a couple ADLs in their "ready to ship" list a few weeks ago.

    2-stage triggers?

    I only had single stage in all my rifles (bolt guns) for over 25 years. I had shot a few AR's with the crappy mil-spec 2 stage triggers and hated em. When I bought my M1 Garand; a rifle I had wanted to own my entire life, I got my idea of 2 stage triggers changed. I watched videos and read...

    Re-barreling .308 to something big?

    So far all I've shot with it is a 100lb whitetail doe at 125 yards and the 270 Speer BTSP made a 1" exit wound and turned the lungs to mush. I plan on shooting a few more with it this fall with the 235 Speers and the 325 grain Maker subs

    Re-barreling .308 to something big?

    Suppressed with 325 grain Makers is absolutely Hollywood quiet. I wanted to do 350's or 400's but Paul said my 12 twist wouldn't stabilize em. The 325's hit like a freight train tho!

    Re-barreling .308 to something big?

    It may not be an anomaly but it's sure as h**l rare in the ballistic world. Lol

    Re-barreling .308 to something big?

    It really is a ballistic anomaly. It is a very, very efficient cartridge. It's a versatile little **** too.

    Re-barreling .308 to something big?

    Bolt gun. I don't do AR's. I don't believe you're gonna loose as much as you think by dropping to 16", which is why I may chop mine down before deer season.

    Re-barreling .308 to something big?

    I did a 375 Raptor. I'm pushing a 270 grain Speer BTSP at 2450 fps in my 22" bbl. That's 3500 ft-lbs at the muzzle, 3000 ft-lbs at 100, and 2500 ft-lbs at 200 yards. I wanted a hard hitting thumper that I could also reach out to 300+ with if need be. I looked at all the options you listed but...
