I went ahead and ordered a .450 Bushmaster barrel. I'll have to have the threads turned and notched but at lease I am on the way to having what I want. Maybe done before the end of deer season.
If I change my mind and want the 450 Marlin instead, it is a very easy rechamber job with not a lot to remove.

I stand corrected. We tend to think things thru with our fingers round here. Don't worry, we all do it! I've learned from your thread, thanks for posting.

However it works out, this thread has certainly been food for thought.

That is about as nice as it gets for a custom 99. Just stunning.

I am dying for a 99 in something bigger than 375. The mostest for bear in manzanita thickets.

thats got me salivating! a match for my 41 mag ruger. if a 45-70 were feasible i would be on it like a duck on a june bug , but alas the bolt face bugaboo. i have a 458 socom and will study that. am queer for the 458 in any flavor. will have to watch for another C for a donor. i might have one more gun build in me.
