Hi Steve

Indeed, old Bruce the armourer at Silverdale just said 308, 308, 308 over and over again. I think he said he like the Remington actions as well and no one was game to say anything different.
Keep the sugestions comming, really great stuff. I really liked the idea of getting two barrels up front, so simple yet so good for little more cost.
The shooters here have hundreds of years of shooting experience, so I expect their to be some differences in opinions so keep them comming - some of the things I don't even understand, but I will aks or go way and look them up which is also enjoyable. I was browsing the remington pages yesterday and found they have a custom shop!

I did the something similar with my Rimfire rifles that are being built now.  I found a good gunsmith and asked him to build two rifles he would be proud of based on a Stiller action, no other instructions given but he did come back and ask what color stock I would like. ie Blue, Red and black always looks good to me on a rifle.

So can not wait to get my rilfes:
Heavy rimfire
PSECO built Stiller Copperhead, RBLP, Lilja 4 grove barrel with EPS chamber, Jewel trigger, Heavy McMillain stock, Kelby bases and rings and of course glue in bedding.
Will have to save some pennies for the March scope to put on it, but will be a 10-60X with 3/16 dot.

Light rimfire
PSECO built Stiller Lonestar 25x repeater, RBRP, Lilja 4 grove barrel with EPS chamber, Jewel trigger, light McMillain stock, Kelby bases and rings and of course glue in bedding. Have a Leupold 6x competition scope ready to screw on.


Not won the lotto yet, but I keep putting in my tickets and maybe 2012 will be my year.


Thanks
