[QUOTE="eddybo, post: 228255, member: 7194"] Okay I got started on the 308 to try and reach extreme velocity with a HEAVY 308 bullet. Here is the barrel...still in the lathe but the threads are cut and so it the shoulder. I would guess that I have .07 clearance between the boltface and the barrel. The bolt will close on one piece of tape but not two. No chamber yet. [IMG]http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j184/eddybo69/IMAGE_00060.jpg[/IMG] The barrel with the action and recoil lug threaded on. [IMG]http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j184/eddybo69/IMAGE_00062.jpg[/IMG] Here is the mcmillan I picked up on EBAY for this build......this build is on a budget. [IMG]http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j184/eddybo69/IMAGE_00061.jpg[/IMG] Heading back out to drill and bore it and start reaming as soon as I paint the wife's toenails.:) There has to be an easier way to get permission for buying toys than being nice to the wife......I just havent found it yet.
