I have an L461 in 223 with a 12" twist Gaillard barrel that shoots 50's and 55's very well. Ted is apparently all done with barrel making but you can easily get a Benchmark from the importer in BC.

If my memory is good, and it might be suspect, your little AI in 6x45 weighs about 4-1/2 lbs bare. IIRC the builder wanted the lightest "deer legal" (for Alberta) rifle he could put together. I think he succeeded.

I have another AI action in the cabinet and I've considered doing something like that.





Yup, working with DG to build this one in .222 , then I'm done buying/building . LOL


LOL...."done" and "keep" are both four letter words...:-)
