[QUOTE="GLTaylor, post: 1959713, member: 111593"] Been using my 243AI since 1973. On it's 5th barrel and 2nd stock. My first custom rifle. Built on a Rem 788 action, so can't help you there. Stock is very pretty African Obeche wood. Feeds flawlessly out of original clip, widened slightly for the fatter caryridge. If you go with the 40° shoulder it stops case stretching and case trimming every 3rd firing (std 243 requirement due to shoulder slope). Incredibly accurate. Over 100 deer with this rifle. Still my most favorite. Last 2 barrels twisted 1:8. Shoot heavies and now Hammers very well! Shot p dogs to 1200 yds with it. You'll love it. [/QUOTE]
