** Sorry I posted this before I had read down. Seems I'm the only thinking this.....
I like what you are proposing but I'm thinking neck it down to 277 and throat it for the high BC bullets.
I am no physics genius but I like this concept A LOT. Less barrel contact and contact points farther apart, sounds like FAST and ACCURATE.... YES PLEASE
Very nice looking, I'll bet it's a shooter. Is that a Browning Action? If so, what stock do you have on it? I am looking to customize a couple of Browning A-Bolts so if you have an info to share I would appreciate it.
