Done. Better pictures to follow. C

I'm looking forward to seeing your build. Should be cool. And yes, the AR is my wife's favorite gun to shoot, albeit in .22lr. I'd like to get her into something a bit more powerful but time will tell. C

I'm beginning the search for a bolt action 30-06 rifle. I'm looking for recommendations on what to buy as I have no experience with the round. I'm looking for recommendations on everything from manufacturer to barrel length and twist. Also, glass... no solid idea on what to put on top of one. I'd like to stay around or below 800 bucks, without scope. Hopefully I can stay well south of that. This won't be a heavily used gun. I'm looking for a rifle to hunt but I wont be trekking through the woods for untold miles, just hiking to a stand. I will use it at the range for plinking but not extensively. I may try and hit steel at 1-300 yards if I get the time. If not no problem for me. I prefer wood. Generally I like laminate for stability and looks but walnut/other hardwoods will suffice. I will consider synthetic if it makes more sense. I would like to stay away from the bargain bin guns. My friend has a Ruger American and it shoots well, however it's not what I'm looking for. I like "pretty" guns. The unfortunate conundrum of champagne taste on a beer budget. Also, I do reload, and I reload 300BLK, so I have the bullets already. It will help keep costs to a minimum. I've seen the Mossberg 4x4, shot the Ruger American, and really like the CZ offerings but am seriously in need of help. Thanks in advance. Christopher

Shoot. I sent you a PM. C

Get a Miculek... C

It's funny. I just re-read my first post. Other than the skeleton stock, the entire rifle is different that what I had imagined it was going to be. Seeing the evolution is kinda neat. Thanks for the kind words. I have very little patience, however being married with kids and the lack of play money sorta makes it look like patience. Patience and poverty seem to complement each other pretty well. One can certainly beget the other. I should have pics of the completed rifle up here in the next few days. I'm looking forward to adding to the build picture thread, that's for sure. Thanks again. C

I understand why they're there on a "fighting" gun, however I'm just not a fan of forward cocking serrations. R.O. has a Kimber, charcoal blued with the bone stocks. I just can't love it with the forward serrations. Just ruins the looks of the gun for me. All that said, it is a beautiful gun and if you like it and have the scratch you should get it and let me run a box thru it. C

So Carl, from Accuracy International, actually called me yesterday. He thanked me for my patience and said that the brake will be shipping tomorrow(today)!!! It's gonna go priority mail so it should be here Monday/Tuesday. I feel like a kid anticipating Christmas!!! I will post pics of the brake as soon as I have it in my grubby little hands and I will be getting the rifle from the 'smith ASAP. C

I don't know about brass availability. I think you can form your own from 284 brass. Buying the brass seems like it's pricey and not too available. But really, none of these calibers seems like it's something that's readily available or inexpensive. C

450 Bushy uses the same bullets as 45acp. Consolidating the amount of bullets I need to have on hand will definitely play into my next build. Good luck with it, whichever you choose. C

"Nobody needs a 15-round ammunition magazine unless they are a domestic terrorist or a gangster," Actually, they don't "need" it, but they have it. However as law abiding citizens we aren't allowed it to fight back. Complete B.S. C

He did hear from us just a few months ago. What exactly did he hear? He heard that he can do as he pleases since not one of the anti gunners was removed from office. I believe that that included him. He doesn't want CCW. Really, he doesn't want the second amendment. As was said above, the fixed stock option is a loophole in the gun ban. C

Can't be too last minute if it happened a month ago!!

^^^yes^^^ C

Someone will opine that it's too loud and dangerous for the victim and perp. C

I have one coming from Accuracy Inc. They have a run being made, but it got backed up. Sucks but what to do? It'll get here sooner or later. Thank you again. I'm thrilled and am hoping to use the heck out of it. C

Scope is here. I went with a lightly used Bushnell 1-4x24 that I picked up off a forum member. It looks new and I saved some loot. Now I'm waiting on the brake... still. C

So plus 1 you have no idea. Ty is a library of all things AR. Hella nice guy that is extremely customer service oriented. I enjoy spending my hard earned money with him. C

Difference between this and 5.56 is BCG and barrel? C

S&W 625. Great gun. Fun to shoot. C

Looks like ammo to me!! It's a fun adventure and really rewarding. I honestly like it at least as much as shooting. I find it to be VERY relaxing. C

I have a 3" Talo. I love that gun. I want the 5" and 7" C

Barrel was in stock and got to me in a little over a week. I don't know component pricing however it is not adjustable. C

If you can build a tumbler that nice, you shouldn't have a problem reloading. Good luck with it. C

I got the Satern. I'm still waiting on a muzzle brake. http://njgunforums.com/forum/index.php/topic/63137-ar-build-questions-guidelines-and-suggestions/page-6 About half way down. C
