[QUOTE="jwhunter, post: 358232, member: 23097"] Hi guys I'm new here and been checking the site frequently and decided to join. Happy to be a part of it! I had a few questions about a LR build. Right now I have a (Post 64') Model 70 in a 300 win mag. I got a timney trigger on it. I would like to build up the gun with a new barrel, stock, true the action, etc. This gun is primarily used for hunting from antelope to elk up to far distances (400~800yds) One of my questions was with the action would I be able to convert it to a 338 edge? I like the possibilities to shoot elk at farther distances with this round. Also what length of barrel,twist, and contour would work and muzzle break? I was thinking of getting a shilen barrel. I also plan on getting a stockadeprairie dog/tactical stock or an h&s precision stock. In addition, is it easier to order the parts and then have a gunsmith put it together or just go through a smith with the whole build?. Any recommendations of a gunsmith in Arizona? Any help/input will be greatly appreciated to help me in the right direction. Thanks! Justin [/QUOTE]
