That Nyati looks like it has been in the magazine for a few shots. Is that a distortion in the pic or does the neck seem to have wrinkles in it?

Jeffo what is the rim diameter of the .50 BMG, is it much more than the Gibb's .640 Rim ??

Pretty well the McMillan and others like it are the only actions for this baby then, I wonder if one could rebate the rim and fit it on a granite arms action with it's .750 bolt diamter ??

Just the McMillan action does not look as sporting like as the big mauser varients IMHO.
