Recieving a remington 7mm-08 remington light varmit rifle.I want it rechambered to 7mm-08 ackley improved. I also want to be able to reach the lands ,back off 15 thsnds,and be able to fit cartridge in blind magazine( Most likely the magazine will have to be modified, a larger one installed and half the screw hole covered when done). Plan to shoot 140 nolsers ballistic tips and hornady 139 interbonds(the plastic tip add 50 ths to the length)also want the j lok removed and another firing assembly installed.also probably should have the action blueprinted as well. jcrawley@cox.net





if i am missing something please tell me.

Might want to consider a 284 as the dies would be less and the performance higher than that of a 7-08 AI.

John,
I never did get those pics that you were going to send. I'll be gone through Sunday for Thanksgiving and hunting. If you find them we can talk on Monday.
