Still, I got the rechambered rifle in the first place for a skosh more than BSA paid for his.



Those deals are out there, but you have to be patient and check a lot of gunshops. Every once in a while they will turn up and you just have to be quick on the wallet. grin

I'm thinking about giving him a call asking him if we could use a H&H action, PT&G LW oberndorff bottom metal and perhaps I could supply a McMillan Bridges.

Brown with red pad.

What's not to like?

They appear to be nice rifles.

Your plan sounds like a winner to me, sir.
Keep us posted on what you find out and thoughts of the conversation that you have, please.

That would be cool, to see what Justin will do for you. I havent seen him posting here lately. Probably because hes been pretty busy. I think your build sounds great, as long as the ergos of the bridges fits you. Ive heard the grip is a little cramped.

I cannot see a darned thing not to like about that. I see they use a 1” shank on their pattern. .625 at the muzzle. Should be about darned right.

We’re you able to secure a Bridges McMillan?

Just received an e-mail from Justin.

I like that he answers his email on a Sunday!

He says the rifle is doable at under 8 pounds, questions the H&H action;

Quote;

Let’s talk about the H&H (Group VII) action.  Is there a reason you prefer this over the shorter Group VI action used on all the Win Mag cartridges?  The Group VII action suffers from some compromises to accommodate the length of the H&H cartridges which the shorter Group VI action does not have do deal with.  Also, we may have trouble with consistent feeding the shorter .300 Win Mag cartridge from the Group VII action.  Unless there is a compelling reason to go with the Group VII / H&H action, I definitely recommend the shorter Group VI action.

Thoughts?

I’d be indifferent to either action as long as it had a 3.6” mag box on it for the 300 myself.

If I was building a 300 Winchester I’d love a 200 grain Accubond to touch the lands at around 3.575” knowing I’d be backing up a bit for accuracy and still leaving a lot of room in the case for powder.

Either way, I’d want my preferred bullet I wanted to use to be within reach of magazine loaded rounds myself.

Which bullet do you have in mind for the 300?

I'll let the rifle choose between the 180 Paritition, 200 Partition, or the 200 Accubond.

From my understanding of previous posts the H&H action will make a lighter rifle, no?

Yes and it will feed and function just fine. I don't know what the [bleep] Justins problem was
