When I rang they never mentioned pre-chambered. They also mentioned that 338cal barrels can be ordered. I'm tempted by the 6.5mm barrels ... to do another x47 Lapua.

I'll likely be pulling a T3 35Whelen apart at a later date ... will go back to a Varmint configuration but 6.5x47Lap. Is the Lap now forgotten?

I thought Wilson only made inline dies.

Just looked, Wilson dont make what I'm after... 222Rem and 223Rem bushing dies.

Why did you go 260AI and not Creedmoor?

Or shouldn't I ask?

Guys,
Who is best placed domestically to supply a Redding S-type FL die plus bushings; or an S-type neck die plus bushings?

Just fun. I've got a 22/250 that launches 40s uber fast, but it's loud for our 30acres. Ok elsewhere. Both 17Rem and 204 offer small bolt compatible, velocities higher than normal, effective on small game, and near point and shoot. Besides, what's a build without a purpose/goal?! Being able to see h...

Barry, I think I agree. :lol: The fact I can shoot 20s, and 25s and get over the 4K hump relatively easily is the clincher. Already have the dies, brass, cleaning gear etc to see out at least x1 17cal barrel. Other nicety is being in irrigation country, with dairy cows all around, whatever fragments...

Pulled the old laptop with QL on it for some research. Looked at x3 cartridges... 17Rem, 204Ruger, and just for giggles, the 20 Practical. Matched all for the 61K psi of the 17Rem (204Ruger is lower by default, Practical even more so)... and in a 24" barrel only the 17Rem could guarantee 4000fp...

I would go with the 20 cal Con, great for the varmints and can double up as a big game rifle. :D 32gn Zmax are great, and seeing you have dies for the 204Rug, I won't try and con you into doing a 20/222 :mrgreen: The 20/222 gives me palpitations. I think its just a brilliant idea. A 'smith up here ...

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiip! Was that the sound of a can'o'worms being opened? :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: Sorry Con, I have no experience with either cal so cannot make a useful comment but will watch with interest. I know ... I hesitated a day or two before asking! :lol: Either will likely sport a...

Guys, Been too long ... help me find clarity (Piss off Unc Johno ... wont need your smart arse comments! :lol: ) Decided to pull a Rem700 apart and fit a fresh barrel. ONLY going to be used protecting my trees from hares, plus the local fox population and rabbits on a mates place to around 300 yards...

Whose Luke? Drop me a PM, may save me having to buy a reamer.

Con 22x47 lapua I hear ya ... but jeez I want to avoid extensive brass forming as much as possible. At least I can get 6mm Creedmoor brass. :lol: Cheers... Con Yep. I had to make a die.
