Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Forbes 24B or Kimber Montana 84L in 25-06

I've talked to a couple of guys about it, but I've not made a decision yet. I personally think duping the contour and eliminating the taper at the end would be the way to go. No stock issues to consider.

Beings am as handy as Maxwell the Pig with hand tools, that'd probably be the route I'd go. IIRC smokepole did something just like that with one of his Kimber rebarrels. Maybe he'll post up how that went...

Talked with Bruno about this today. He said he will turn it down to whatever final diameter I desire, but will probably have to bed the channel again.

.260? Thinking about that and may go with something a little different just for giggles. Another .22-250 which is a cartridge I've always liked, or an old timer Pa Deer cartridge in a modern package: .300Savage or .250Savage.

Going Grouse hunting tomorrow and will drop it off.
