[QUOTE="Buttermilk, post: 754951, member: 5262"] Sorry if my 1st post left some in a state of confusion. Edd is aware of the history of this blank, so I didn't explain particulars regarding the exact happenings of the blank. Blank was supplied as an Octagon by Blackstar, ~30" length, tight bore 30 cal. One of the photo's above show it as it came, ready to thread for a bolt type gun, or similarly threaded receiver. MGM did not do the octagon. However, if you check with MGM's website they offer the octagon and dodecagon shaping. MGM did the turning down of the blank to the Encore dimensions on the breech end. They also did the chambering, the scope base as well as drill/tap for the fore end, cutting the barrel to length, and the crowning. Lastly, they blasted it for a satin finish. If you need to speak with someone at MGM, I've personally only had conversations with Kerry and Jeff. Regards, Rog [/QUOTE]
