Any data yet on batch #2? I'm waiting to see myself.
"An archer sees how far he can be from a target and still hit it, a bowhunter sees how close he can get before he shoots." It is certainly easy to use that same line of thinking with firearms. -- Unknown

Of all the suggestions I've received by PM, I'd say the 358 Winchester is the leading contender.
I enjoy handguns and I really like shotguns,...but I love rifles!

A stainless 358 with a 20" barrel and open sights would be interesting. I kind of miss my 338 rcm.

If you do a 358 run I'd be in for one for sure then.

I'd be all about a .358. Have been "planning" one in my head for a few months.

I'd be in for 35 Whelen or 9.3x62
Yeah, well, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man.

I emailed, but got the out of office response. He'll return on the 14th and I'll post an update then! Did I miss the update??

I would definately take another in an 8 twist 243. I'm also thinking a 284 win might work with that 3.1" magazine. Make that an 8.5 or 8.75 twist.

I'd love either a 7X57 or a 308.
