LFN for sure. With a very sick wife�.and a son, who will be grown and likely gone within the next 3 to 6 years, my plan is to move back to Alaska. This rifle is light enough to carry a lot, yet shoot a lot and have a bullet of sufficient weight and an appropriate design to stop a charging grizzly. It shoots 250 Accubonds and 285 Partitions very well but�..cast boolits have always be special to me.

If you happened to have caught a thread I started over on the Gunsmithing section, this rifle has a VERY short throat. Veral could only get bullet weight up to 174 gr with a LFN mold he made for me based off a throat slug I sent him. So, once I receive the new mold from Veral, I will then cast some up, seat them to the appropriate depth (GC at the base of the neck?) and slowly start reaming the throat until it will accept a loaded round that is just touch the throat when the cartridge is chambered.
