OK - UPDATE

The action is a Stiller Cobra Drop Port RB/LP
The trigger is a Jewell
The stock is the Shehane African Obeche Baby Tracker,Indian Paint)
The scope will be a Weaver T-36

It will be a "glue-in"

....and I have cartridge components ordered

I got a lot of great input from a lot of good people. I'm glad that I am a good listener because I believe this will be a good shooter. My son is looking forward to it. Now how do I trade him something else for it ??

I am already trying to conceptualize the next project, probably a 30BR. Thanks to all for the great input. Stay tuned because if I decide on a 30BR, I want to get as much input as I can.

As each build begins and ends, it becomes more and more obvious to me that by biting the bullet,pardon the pun) and springing for good quality parts, a ggreat rifle seems to end up cheaper than going through a succession of mods to an "OK" one.

Sounds good..! The 13.5 twist should serve ya well. Just a tad better with the long shank bullets "double radius" 8 ogive such as Bart Ultras 66 or 68 gr... Which is a bullet you should try.

Some wind flags and a well chosen front rest and rear bag, little groups are soon to follow.!

The 30 for VFS Score matches can be achieved with either a 30PPC Or through the 30BR case and turning the rims down to work in your PPC bolt face.
