They can be pretty hard on a fella shooting at an odd angle out of a truck window. Other than that, the guide gun would be a tough beat around truck gun.Just buy a Marlin Guide Gun in 45-70. Very compact, very powerful, very cost effective.

I was going to do that years ago, but never got around to it.I've been thinking about building a rem model 7 in 6.5 grendel with somewhere around 18 inch barrel.
Does anybody know if the 700 and mod 7 have the same thread pitch ? I have a 6.5 creedmoor kreiger barrel in a #4 taper , set up for a remage I was thinking of rechambering to a grendel , but I'd like to use the 7 action to be as compact as possible.
That seems doable. I could probably just copy my AR gendel mags for the feed and just get someone to chuck up the bolt and open the face. That is, unless the ejector location on the 223 bolt would be too far from the edge for flinging the brass the right angle.I was going to do that years ago, but never got around to it.
You will need to start with a .223 action, and have the magazine box feed lips custom trimmed for the odd-sized Grendel width. And the bolt face opened to the odd-sized diameter. Other than that, straight-forward build from there.
Unless you can find a REALLY hard to find rifle, then you will have a platform that is nearly perfect from the get-go... Remington used to build the 5R milspec rifles chambered in 6.8 SPC. If you can find one those, that would be ultimate platform to start your build.
I never got that far into it... You'd have to get with a gunsmith to figure out the ejector placement, to ensure it will work. It should work, but like I said, verify before dropping cash.That seems doable. I could probably just copy my AR gendel mags for the feed and just get someone to chuck up the bolt and open the face.

The proper aiming point would be just above center in height and to the left of center in the windshield. Works almost everytime ! Please turn directions around for trucks in European countries.I keep reading "Truck Gun" and wondering. What kind of gun is needed to hunt trucks? And what kind of ammo? After all, just how do you stop a charging truck? Where does a hunter aim to hit the most vital organs in a truck? How far will a truck run after it has been hit?
(Just joking. I know it's a Ruger American Predator 20" in .308. LOL.)
