[QUOTE="Buttermilk, post: 1522067, member: 5262"] There are several options that will work. Jon Beanland built me a custom XP-100 in 7mm RSAUM. 17.5" bbl. 1/4 MOA to 1/2 MOA accuracy depending on load. 162-168 gr bullets at 2774 FPS to 2850 FPS, depending on load. It's plenty for elk. I also have a T/C Encore 30-338WM that will work for elk as well. 16.5" bbl. I supplied a cut rifled blank to MGM and they built the barrel for me. 1/2 to 1 MOA accuracy, and 175-180 gr bullets at 2700-2846 fps depending on load. SSK makes good barrels for the Encore as well. The Specialty Handgun Hunting section of this forum also is a good place to post any questions, as is the Specialty Pistols forums. McMillan is the only synthetic stock option now. Ernie Bishop has a group buy going for a McMillan stock. He's on the site. Several gunsmiths that can build a good XP-100 custom. If you're left handed, right bolt works perfect. [/QUOTE]
