Cool Christmas present to yourself. I kinda sorta did the same thing as I just ordered a 16 1/4 inch 7.62 x 39 barrel with a .311 bore for my Contender from MGM. Now I'm thinking of buying a big bore barrel to hog hunt with. Merry Christmas too.

traded a guy on here my synthetics for walnut stock and forend from Boyd's. VERY nice.

going to add a .204 barrel and a .308 sooner or later, to go with my .25-06 and i will be able to hunt anything i want with the rifle.

i do like having lots of rifles but it's nice to be able to use one i am familiar with.

i have loads worked up and i will let you all know as soon as i have shot some groups, maybe saturday.
