I’ll take it. PM sent

That’s perfect for a rebore to 358

I couldn’t resist. Ordered a classic. Looks like my wife will be getting a new 260AI build lol.

Wish this was an MX-3 special. That’s still a great gun though. What’s the bore diameter? Has the barrel had any work done on it?

I agree with other posts about the factory brakes. They greatly reduce recoil but are obscenely loud (seem to be louder than a side port brake). If you want a gunsmith to install it send it to Karl at Kampfeld customs. His brakes are very similar to a factory weatherby brake. He does excellent...

I’m looking forward to the 270 WSM

@grouse had some. Maybe he has some left.

Is this an attempt at a for sale add?

The troll is still here?

The only thing I have seen hurt the 1/2” AR500 plate is a 30-378 Weatherby shooting 180ttsx Barnes. It punches neat little holes straight trough. Even out at 300 yards.

That appears to be galled. I hope you weren’t planning on screwing a pre fit on that action. I’m sure someone can chime in that’s smarter than me or had to deal with this before, but I think a smith should be able to clean up the threads. May have to cut them larger but then a prefix won’t work...

I haven’t used 3/8” AR500 plate, but 1/2” I have. No issues damaging the 1/2” plate with my 270wsm 126HH at 3350 fps or a 6.5 PRC with 124HH at 3320 fps. The 1/2” AR500 plate doesn’t even get boogered with a 300 Wby 200 Barnes LRX at 3000 fps.

My card wasn’t hit so maybe I’m S.O.L. Had 12 points so my odds weren’t that great.

Mine still says pending as well. I’m NR. Do they draw residents first?
