Some Before and after pics
started with a Plastic Cheap Savage/Stevens in 243
and ended up with a bedded and Pillared Heavy Barrel in 223 kind of turning a sows ear

I dig the 116 300 wm @Bobpuckett. I have the same rifle. I'm in the process of customizing it. I just bought a timney trigger and a Choate stock. The next upgrade will be an E.R Shaw heavy barrel. I used to shoot the rifle a lot but was very unhappy with the factory stock and junk trigger. It was due for an upgrade. Can't wait to get it done and run some rounds through it, hell I may start hunting with it again!

Thanks, I've had a heckava time finding good heavy barrels for that. I'll check it out and see what they got. The E.R. Shaw barrels look very nice and are pretty reasonable but I'll see what Apache has. Who knows they might have a better deal! Thanks

I just recieved a SS Heavy sporter from them in 338-06 Last year I bought a 7MM-08 I don't know a hell of a lot about barrels but my GS says the work is first class,
 
@Rob44 thanks for the suggestion, I checked them out along with about a half dozen or so others. I went a head no ordered the Shaw but the Apache was a close second.

Just moving to DM. Yes, please ask your friend if he knows somebody who might be willing to support a persistent hunt in the snow.

Hi Paul,
This is Daniel from Mankazana Safaris.

I saw your post regarding a hunt in Africa. I am sure you have been bombarded with messages and replies from other outfitters, so I will keep this one quick.
I have a feeling we have exactly what you need for a first safari.
If you'd like to hear more, please don't hesitate to reach out.

Yours sincerely,

If you ever decide to sell this rifle, I will buy it with the dies, bullet, brass, the works. Dan
