Doin' good Johnny, thanks for the well wishes.
I finally gave up trying all the new stuff, and sold everything that wasn't 708.(well, ok, my 284 LR Hammer, too) But, point is...I've found the magic bullet, they shoot dam near as good as my competition rifles (sub 1/2 moa) and I love the builds. I'm just plain done building any more.
Now I'm going to see what it takes to REALLY burn out a barrel...then just replace.
I built a pile of custom rifles on my modified Tikka actions and recoil lugs over the last 8 years, and found what I was trying to accomplish. Now, I just kill stuff with them. Good luck with your 6.5, and let me know when I can come down and show you what a REAL 708 shoots like.
