Nathan,
Welcome to the Fire!
Can you tell me how much lighter the action you spec'd is vs. the Defiance Rebel action?
Thanks! Just talked this over with them at length. It's a tough question to answer because the Rebel has so many options. Our action weighs in at about 22oz for the short version. Using a completely "standard" short action as the point of reference, we're saving about half a pound give or take an ounce or two. Great question. Thanks again for posting. Best regards, Nathan

When will you be choosing the winners of the build?

Looks like beautiful work to me but a bit out of my reach.
Always fun to look though, hope to see some photos of the rifles in action!
Good Luck!

This has been a really awesome experience. I'm really blown away by the quality of people that we've been in contact with during this.
We had a super tough time choosing the 2. PM's sent. Looking forward to working with you guys.
While we can't afford to do too much of this sort of thing. We had too many awesome people writing us to just pick two. So, everyone that sent a PM to enter is getting a certificate good for $250 towards a rifle.
Thanks for everyone's posts and messages.
Best regards,
Nathan

Just wanted to say thanks to Nathan...sent in the barrels from my stoeger to get them cerakoted, absolutely fantastic job and great turnaround time. Really took good care of me, will be using them again if I ever need anything else coated. I'll get some picks of the cerakote job up later.
