[QUOTE="Muddyboots, post: 1897805, member: 63925"] I ended up purchasing a Preferred Barrel 300WSM Remage and it shoots great in my 100 yard range in backyard. When I can get back to shooting at club which only has out to 300 I will post up again. Fit and finish is really nice. I had asked for the chamber to be SAAMI but I wanted it on the short side of SAAMI which is contrary to 99% of what you normally want but my Magpul AICS COAL limitation was the driver to give me possibility to load 0.010 off with virtually any bullet. I know it is limiting but this is not an ELR rig just mid 500-600 probably for Indiana ag field hunting. I also went with spiral fluting which I think turned out nice. Bore does not really copper foul hardly at all. Chamber from what I can see at this time is smooth not tool marks. Brass comes out clean with any markings on it. No carbon on outside of necks. So far, I am liking what I see. This is my first build so it went as well as I could hope it would. I bought go gauge set from PTG and the barrel set up went perfect once I realized what a dumass I was initially. Thought I'd share since it is kind of funny. I was so excited to get the barrel spun on ONLY as a look see as to what it looked like on receiver. Looked great but was crushed! All that excess thread showing after barrel was spun up to gauge. Dang how could this be? How could it be so wrong! DUMAS!!!! Forgot to put recoil lug on!!:eek:🤬🤬 Here is final build pic so far with one load with 190 Speer Impact off a plastic table in yard so bit flimsy to shoot off.[ATTACH type="full" alt="IMG_2229.JPG"]192540[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full" alt="IMG_2303.JPG"]192541[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
