[QUOTE="jpfrog, post: 1447233, member: 32525"] Well, that was WAY easier than I thought it would be. Once the Nickel Anti-Seize arrived this afternoon, I installed the barrel to the receiver. I have been wondering what I was going to do for an optic on this rifle and still don't have an answer. However, I have to have the bolt on my 6.5x47 Lapua bushed, etc., so it'll work better with the small primer pockets, so while that rifle is out of commission, I temporarily "stole" the Gen 1 Razor HD off of it and slapped it on the new 6.5-284 I put together this afternoon. Thanks to all that helped make the decision to do a Remage vs. Short chambered barrel earlier this year, and thanks for the advice on the anti-seize. It was so easy. Bolt closes on the "Go" and won't close on the "No Go" so I think I'm good. Thanks to [USER=36564]@Remmy700[/USER] for the smokin' deal he gave me on the Rem700 long action, Jewell trigger, Gen 2 5r stock, and bottom metal (he also hooked me up with a Seekins 1 piece base but I installed that on my Gen 2 5r 300 win mag). Thanks to James at NSS for the 26" Criterion 1-7.5" twist 6.5-284 Norma barrel, nut, and wrench! Best part about this build- the stock is identical to my Gen2 Rem700 5r .300win mag, so the boss has a harder time noticing that there are 2 rifles that look like it instead of 1. :cool: Now I just have to work up a load- think I'll measure my seating depth tomorrow and make some test loads...if it's not too hot. I probably lost 5 pounds just sweating in the garage today. Gotta love the Texas heat! [/QUOTE]
