No problems with a muzzle diameter of .562" I have 9,3x62's with .550" muzzle diameters. Sorry, can't help as to how it balances, my Kimber is an 84M. Sounds like a great build. Try an 84L in '06 and see how it balances and remember that the same profile with a .35 cal bore will be lighter, so you can achieve the same balance with a slightly heavier profile.
Excellent news & thank you Sir.
I’m actually pretty excited over this build & it seems to be a fairly straightforward project.
Thanks again
