[QUOTE="Matchbook454, post: 1899284, member: 108594"] So a few things have been ironed out at work so I can continue to plan for this rifle build. I have settled on the Bighorn Origin action as well as a caliber - 300 PRC. I’m leaning towards a Kreiger barrel but have some questions about contour and rifling. Since the main purpose of this build is hunting I do not want too heavy of a barrel and I want a fluted barrel. Is a fluted #4 sporter barrel - 26” a good choice in your opinion??? I would like to be capable of 1,000 yards plus if need be. Another question is standard rifling or 5R? Does 5R really make much of a difference? [/QUOTE]
