Jack09 keep us posted on the Maddco, I would be very interested in the pricing.
Camel, lilja have 1-12 or 1-9 in .20 cal on their website. I was thinking 1-12 as I have a 22-250 which I shoot 40 grainers out of so thought no need for a faster twist as I would stick with the 32 grains. The boyds will need some slight modification to fit the #5, hopefully I don't fuck it up completely lol.
Thanks for the input fellas, it is much appreciated.

Guess what I picked up today?
Re: Guess what I picked up today?
No worries mate. Lee (trentech) was very honest and gave a good idea on the turn around time of the work. It is getting bedding, trigger job, cerakoted action, rebarrel. He also does work out of Queensland, if your keen on his number or anything, let me know mate. One awesome thing I found was he didn't try to push me into a heavy barrel like most of the smith's tried to, actually went the other way and went as light as the original profile! it wouldn't of been much good on the intended rifle anyways.
