Lightweight 338-06 build - 02/24/09
Hey guys I'm starting to get ideas for my next build. I'm going to build a 338-06 on a Ruger M77 MKII stainless action. I want to keep this rifle on the lighter side. I plan on working with a black McEdge stock and stainless barrel as well. I understand most barrel manufacturers contour sizes vary slighty. But with a 23" or 24" barrel, what contour would be best a #2 or #3? I'm not going for super lightweight or compact, just a lighter weight sporter hunting machine. Thanks much.
