[QUOTE="Weaselthis, post: 1764236, member: 19417"] Congratulations on the purchase, Brian. I hope the miscalculation turns into a happy find for you! Not too many folks have a rifle w/ P.O. Ackley stamped on the barrel! Your post struck me and I thought if it were me, meaning I'd be somewhat hesitant to pull the trigger before I found out for sure, but I think I'd have a chamber cast made. Could this barrel be an improved version of the 7-300WM perhaps? If so, I would want to be sure and seat the bullet out far enough and be conservative on the powder charge to insure that the bolt face was flush to the case head for the first loading to get it fire formed to the 40 degree shoulder if that was indeed the case. Hope the rifle does well for you. Take care. [/QUOTE]
