I know you meant '.5040' instead of .6040, as your math is correct: .504-.358=.146

Well, that's food for thought.

Hey, the rifle would weigh even less after the rebore!!

Thank you!

I'm a big Hawkeye fan but I have no interest in the new ones. The muzzles are threaded and the integral bases are gone.

The rail they come with is set up for very, very long range shooting... they sorta went "tacti-cool" which is a major bummer.

Yup. That's how I feel too. It was my favorite current factory rifle.
