I have a 5-25 PII courtesy of ecomeat... Thats the only component so far
Have a 308W and a 6mmSLR.

Any of the long range 338's....that scope would be wasted on anything less!

What about a 7mm of sorts- 280AI, 7mmSAUM, Something you can shoot even further with than the 308W and 6SLR.

I had a look at the 375 Ruger after you talked about necking down to 30cal.
It runs a little quicker than a 375 H&H.
So necking it down would give you a 300Ackley, kind of!
I would build something like this,
I know it's a little (a lot) different for you but change is good AI!

Trev, my gun building days are behind me, at least for the foreseeable future! And i have never even heard of thos components. If you bulilt a 20 dasher to fire 55 gn bergers the same speed as 40s from a 204, BAT is the only serious single shot action I have experience with and a nice thumbhole stock then I would drool all over the keyboard and be very sad i couldnt afford it when you sell.

But on a serious note, you done this more than anyone I know (have guns built that is). Could you do it for others, could you make a sideline out of "custom gun design consultant"

Sell your M40 to me, then you'd have the funds to build another one
