[QUOTE="HARPERC, post: 1557553, member: 30671"] Wish we were closer I've owned that rifle for about 35 years. You're on the right track I think. Brown Precision Kevlar stock, did shoot the bedding out once, repair plus cross bolts, and no more issues. I went with a 20" barrel, and as straight H&H ammo has always clocked where it's supposed to. It was supposed to be 1-10", but shooting the 395 Hammers they definitely key holed, measured after and 1-11". We got 2250 ish if I remember correctly. 350 grain Barnes Originals at 2450. I'd go with a 1-9" if it was me. I think it's 0.8" at the muzzle fairly straight taper. Douglas Match Grade. A decent compromise is the Weatherby, as H&H can be used in a pinch, or fire forming, and is more useful in the heavier weights I think. With the heavier bullets available it nudges into .416 territory. The 357 Sledge Hammer would do me nicely. Interarms Mauser, Winchester style safety, Canjar trigger I like the Montana, building today I'd go with their PH model, and longer magazine. I have a 3 leaf express sight on mine, not enough sight radius to be useful even back when I could still see them. I've got bits of boxes left if you need some bullets to look at let me know, and I can send them your way. [/QUOTE]
