I have a .375 barrel blank (1:12") on hand and a lead on a reasonably priced .416" blank (1:14"), both in #4 Contours. I have a nice Model 70 Classic Stainless 7 WSM for a donor action for a WSM or an older Ruger M77 Tang safety in 7 Mag for a Taylor. Both actions feed their respective cartridges very well. I have a decent supply of virgin .325 WSM brass and .338 Brass.
Not interested in anything other than a .375 or.416 WSMorTaylor . Neither will probably see Africa but both may have a chance to get all expenses paid trips to AK or TX for bears, moose, pigs, nilgai, etc. I have plenty of other options so this is definitely a "want to" build but I do like short, handy rifles that pack a punch.
Anybody want to sell me on one versus the other?
