details??
What barrel did you use and where from? What was the stub barrel? where did you get the forearm band ?  What about the ejector or extractor? I have been in the hospital for most of the last week getting my bionic spine installed and will be ready for a project soon and would like the info. I am salivating thinking about it.
 
 It looks great by the way.

It is a trotter special,300 weatherby barrel and 410 barrel, ejecter and parkerized,the barrel band works perfectit keeps forearm floated about 1/8 " only place it touches is at band and forearm spacer. I could only shoot about forty yards here at house but sierra 125hollow points at 1500 look promising

Good luck with it it's a fun caliber recreating what the 32/20 has been doing for many years. So it's in great company!!

Larry does a fine job on these barrels I am sure yours is no different !

Great post Jason. I'm still working with mine and am hoping to get some good loads with heavy bullets, 140 grain and up. If that does not work out the 125's are interesting as well....<><....:)

You need to try several bullets!  When you get around to it (eventually).  ;D
 
Byallmeans try those lighter Remingtons, but I hope you try lead boolits too and report back.  and even other 125's and some 130's!  And maybe some 150's?
