[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 842420, member: 10"] If you came to me with this project, this is what I would recommend: -Fully accurize bolt and receiver -fit an aftermarket recoil lug, I recommend Holland Comp recoil lug -Lilja barrel contour for a rifle intended for +1000 yard use, AT LEAST a #7 contour with a #8 being even better. -With the Berger 180s, go with the Lilja 1-9 twist 4 groove rifling. -Go at least 28" barrel but no more then 30" -Freefloat barrel obviously -Install at least a Wyatts 3.820" extended internal magazine box of if you want to seat the 180 gr to the base of the neck, you may want to go with a Seekins 3.900" DM system or a 3.990" center feed Wyatts internal mag box. -make sure stock is up to the challenge. -Use a quality muzzle brake, you will be happy with a good brake, no recoil at all from the 7mm RUM, the big 7mm really makes a good brake work very well.
