I do not recall gunner500's twist, or whether it is a JES rebore or what. Maybe he will remind us?
Rusty McGee and I went through the same thing you are going through on the barrel selection. Shilen was it for us. No. 5 sporter, 1:14" twist, just because. First was chromoly. Second one they slipped up and made a No. 4 stainless one for me. Strangely they decided they would not do that anymore. Maybe they got wind of my +2400 fps 400-gr Woodleigh proof load ?
I once got excited about getting some N.O.E. sizers, but they did not have anything I needed at the time, since I did not know about them when I was collecting sizers from LEE and CH4D. I am going to keep them in mind for future, as well as checking out their moulds for the .400 Whelen.
A-Team all the way. I gotta think about a backup to my .458 WinMag. The .400 Whelen will be a nice one for old age.
Ron aka "Rip" for Riflecrank Internationale Permanente NRA Life Benefactor and Beneficiary .458 Winchester Magnum, Magnanimous in Victory THE WALKING DEAD does so remind me of Democrap voters. Donkeypox.
