[QUOTE="D.Camilleri, post: 35402, member: 2567"] Kirby, Thanks for the info. My gunsmith has told me that the 300rum in STAINLESS have been having bad throat erosion problems. Mine is the first blued ultra mag that he has dealt with. He is having a custom reamer built that should be here in several days. My original barrel has a cracked rifling about 1/3 way up the barrel and a chunk of rifling missing about 2/3rds up the barrel. I have contacted remington and they have given me the ok to return my barrel for inspection. I don't expect much from them however. Where in MT are you? I go to Billings quite often and I have a friend that lives there that is looking for a good gunsmith to build him a custom 300 rum(he has a 700 action)Dave [/QUOTE]
