Well, no luck on the Tikka T3x so I decided to re-barrel the Remington. I went a little crazy.

Northland Shooters supply

Criterion Remage Barrel 1/9 twist
Barrel Nut
Barrel nut wrench
Heavy Lug
Action wrench
Lug Tool
$577

The of course I need a barrel vice, Optics Planet for $80

I bought a Choate stock for $220 but then decided to up scale. A Kinetic Research Group Chasis, of course with the no tool butt, aluminum not plastic. a 5 round AICS mag.
$500 there.

All in I guess, hope I get what I paid for.

I'll use the Choate stock on another 700 I have floating around, and of course I now have the tools.

No 8" twist available?

The diet will be 55 grain, probably build a 68 grain load just to be able to.

I’d set it up for long bullets, but that’s just me.

Beyond simple curiosity I don't see the point in that around here.

Try the 22-250 with a suppressor. They shoot like a sweet heart canned up in about bolt gun

Be careful ordering from Optics Planet, often they list items as in stock when they are not - might be a while before you receive that order.

Quick sand up to my nose now.
Vortex 6-24x50 Diamondback Tactical FFP Riflescope, 30mm Tube, EBR-2C MOA Reticle
Weaver Extended Multi Slot Base
Weaver 30mm Tactical Rings, High, Matte

Sounds like a fun project. I have never used a Criterion barrel but have heard nothing but good about them. Will be curious how yours does

Sounds like a fun rifle, I like 62 Barnes or 62 Bear Claws in mine.

Words of wisdom here......I dont buy from them ever

If I don't get what I ordered in two weeks I'll cancel and go local. The few $$$ saved ain't worth the hassle. If it's not in stock they need to say so before the order is placed.

my Silverado plates are 22 250 for the last 10 years
