Action, reamers, dies and gauges are in. Waiting on a Proof Sendero Lite that I'll finish at 22" and thread 5/8-24 for a TBAC Ultra-5. For the stock I'm going to give AG Composites a shot and BDL-style bottom metal will be from Hawkins. Triggertech trigger. Should have it wrapped up in a few weeks.

Following closely …
Been going back and forth on barrels for something very similar; been leaning towards the sendero prefit but still haven’t pulled the trigger. Actually wish it was 22 as you are doing.

OP, where'd you source the AG stock from? AG direct? Wait time?
I never thought I'd grow up to be a grumpy old man, but I did, and I'm killin' it.

Working with their external marketing firm on getting one since the build will be covered in an article. No guarantees at this point on whether they are able to deliver in time.

More to follow once I get a chance to shoot my 7 PRC build in ernest - weather has not been cooperating. Did send 2 rnds down the tube today, out the back door, so I'd have a couple of once fired rounds to send to Hornady and have modified case gages made.

For anyone interested in the defiance/proof prefit route, Altus is now out and Evolved ballistics is down to two.
