I don't know what the feelings are of some of the other guys on this forum, but its a questionalbe idea to chamber a 700 in 338 Lapua. That is why some of the custom actions have become so popular, they are designed to handle that cartridge. That being said, the bolt face will have to be...

You also might want to look at carbon wrapped barrels by Advanced Barrel Systems. You will gain 2 advantages: 1) it will weigh about the same as a #1 or 2 contour barrel, with the accuracy of a heavy barrel. 2) it will dissapate the heat created 300x faster then a steel barrel I routinely...

I have been using ABS wrapped, Satern barrels for going on 2 years. I have also used alot of Rock barrels. The Satern barrels are every bit as good, in fact, they are better lapped then the Rock and take alot less barrel break-in. The Satern's use a 5R style rifling, VERY similar to the Rock...

Anybody have any experience with sending rifles to Canada from the US? I have a prospective customer interested in a rifle, but neither him or I have delt with international shippment issues. Any info would be great.

Roy This rifle does have a Douglas barrel on it. At the time I built the rifle, Rock was WAY behind on the 7mm barrels. The customer and I decided to go ahead and use a douglas. The Douglas barrels are as good a button rifled barrel as any, what they lack is a good lapping job. Mike at ABS did...

Roy No problem with questions. The rifle weighs about 7 lbs with out scope. That model of scope weighs about 1 lbs. It is a Composite Hunter model. Thanks Todd

Roy You can see the rifle at www.bettincustomguns.com in the photo section. It is the rifle labeled composite Remington 7mm stw. If you were to decide to buy this rifle, I will remove the muzzle brake and machine a cap to cover the threads, no charge. Thanks Todd

I have used a good number of barrels by ABS on my custom rifles. Every rifle built to date has performed fantastic. I use only ABS barrels with Rock Creek cut rifled liners and routinely send hunting rifles to customers that shoot 1/4 moa groups. I currently have a 6.5-284 in a Lone Wolf stock...
