I must have missed out somehow. Is it still to late to order a barrel. Should I just call Pac-Nor and place an order?.

In my knowledge(admittedly limited) I can't see a need for it. There would be plenty sholder to headspace on.

KristoferThe 620 OK case is not a BMG case. It is a new design that lacks a shoulder and therefore needs a belt to headspace on.
500grains, if you look up in the thread there, I am conversing with RGB about a BMG based 600 cal.

Guys- It's not yet too late. We have seven barrels ordered ( 1 extra) and 8 die sets. Next week we concentrate on Brass. So far we are anticipating about 700 cases. If you want in e-mail me ASAP. Honestly figure on about $1000 for the pre-chambered/threaded barrel/3 Die reloading set and 100 cases from Horneber. We have lined up two good gunsmiths and possibly a CZ550/602 atock duplicator.-Rob

KmuleinAK- Hard to say exactly. Anywhere from about 1K up to 3K depending on how much work you farm out and what parts you have already. Both AHR and John Ricks will work on this project for those who need some gunsmithing done.-Rob

If the barrel brass dies are ~$1k, figure $550 for the action, ~$300 for bolt, barrel and rail work, maybe more depending on the amount of rail work, and the stock depends on what you want, ie plastic or wood. Figure $200 for the iron sights installed. So, $2-3k out the door on the low end.

It certainly won't cost any more then other large bore customs, and is the least exspensive way to get something really big [Big Grin] Too bad I don't have the spare coin for one [Frown]
