o.k. dont laugh... the wife was at summer school and i was having fun with my camera... this is my pac-nor 470 barrel, soon to be a 470 a.r. it is a stainless "heavy palma" contour 24" 1 in 10 twist. quite a stove pipe...when i put a quarter next to it it looks like a double rifle  it is pretty heavy so that should tame muzzle rise and recoil some. i am thinking of a grey laminated stock from boyds. this rifle might get me promoted to a bubba         577 BME 3"500 KILL ALL 358 GREMLIN 404-375 *we band of 45-70ers* (Founder) Single Shot Shooters Society S.S.S.S.

Heh, nice pics.. that's a huge barrel.. BS, that ought to have all the recoil of your 45/70!!! I don't know that the boyds stock is wide enough for the shank, so measure the diameter and length, and give boyds a call!! You are well on the way, sir...

i still like the idea of the blr... i am thinking of doing a 358 a.r. on a blr... pistol bulllets and 300 grain smack-downers! 358 s.t.a. in a lever and handy package sounds good to me. also shooting barnes x.p.b's @ 3300 fps! or maybe a 416 a.r on the blr  DAMN! i need to make more money to keep up with my wildcat'n needs (needs )577 BME 3"500 KILL ALL 358 GREMLIN 404-375 *we band of 45-70ers* (Founder) Single Shot Shooters Society S.S.S.S.

Boom, you need a Knoxx Compstock for that Ruger. If you get the mdel with the full aluminum bedding block you can skip the barrel under-lug. These work: Knoxx "Experience" is the only class you take where the exam comes before the lesson. | |||

boom, that's the boyd's JS classic... i built the first try stock for the 550 express on that pattern, in the walnut lam, btw. grey lam's nearly NEVER come out grey, they come out green, when finished jeffe opinions vary band of bubbas and STC hunting Club Information on Ammoguide about the416AR, 458AR, 470AR, 500AR What is an AR round?

that looks interesting, thanks. i was thinking the laminated one would help balance the heavy barrel and put a kick-ease pad on it. i will look some more into it  i wonder how it would do under the recoil of the 470 a.r?  i like the design and the groove for the fingers on the fore end. 577 BME 3"500 KILL ALL 358 GREMLIN 404-375 *we band of 45-70ers* (Founder) Single Shot Shooters Society S.S.S.S.

BS, save yourself some money. Use the factory stock on your 470AR. 1. You will already own a stock that fits, when you get your donor rifle. 2. Just open up ths barrel channel. 3. Put on a first class recoil pad of your choice. 4. Weight the stock as needed to balance it with thet barrel. (lead, tungsten, etbc.) 5. Inlet and bed the forend for a recoil lug on the barrel. 6. Spend the money you saved by NOT getting an after market stock and come to SE Texas for a "Band of Bubbas" shoot. Priorities must be kept in order.

the stainless comes with a synthetic stock...  what should i do with it? would a recoil lug work on a synthetic? 577 BME 3"500 KILL ALL 358 GREMLIN 404-375 *we band of 45-70ers* (Founder) Single Shot Shooters Society S.S.S.S. (Founder) | |||

Perfect twist for a 470. Good choice, that 10" twist Pac-Nor. Here is what my 10" twist McGowen 470 Capstick does with North Fork Cup Points of 500 grain weight:  You can use 470 Capstick data for your rifle, eh, with the usual precautions? | |||

thanks rip... that twist seems to "stabilize" those heavies well. with the extra capacity over the capstick i hope to touch 2400 fps! the cup and flat nose solids from north fork are my bullet of choice for "thumper" (my soon to be 470) 577 BME 3"500 KILL ALL 358 GREMLIN 404-375 *we band of 45-70ers* (Founder) Single Shot Shooters Society S.S.S.S.

Boomstick, Was that the Boyd's JRS you were looking at? I just tried one on a Montana 1999 in .450 Ackley. It handles and points well but the comb of the stock is so high that I really have to scrunch (?) down on the stock to line up with the Williams apeture sight on it. In doings so, it whacks me pretty hard on the cheek during recoil - almost enough to make me cry .The JRS design would be sweet on something like a (cough) scoped 7 mag though. | |||
