Well I am at the point in this 30-40Krag quest that I am going to send in a reciever and have a bbl fitted, now that things seem to have calmed some at H&R. BUT before I do I have been having thoughts of having a stub done instead for some reason I think I want to have this in a min. of a 24"bbl and should be able to find a long 30-06 bbl some where cheap. Any thoughts on this or should I just get the 30-30 from the factory and be done with it??? I am doing just the straight 30-40 as I already have a 30-06 Handi . It is not like this is gonna be the workhorse of the asenal... just a fun one to have.Is it worth the added cost?? Kurt
