Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Custom Rifles & Wildcats Which barrel makers run larger or smaller than average?

Thanks for all the feedback guys.

I HAD a .300 Winny built by Hill Country last year.

Stiller action, Hart #4 @ 24", McMillan Hunter in standard fill. Came out weighing right at 7.2lbs sans scope.

Maybe with the #3 @ 23" (or #4 Rock) in a standard fill McMillan (haven't decided on style yet) would come in a shade under 7lbs?

That weight, with good balance in the middle, would be great.

I've also been considering the lefty BDL McMillan. They show it to be made for "up to a #4 contour". Always liked the way the factory BDL stocks fit me.
