This the second time I have tried to post, GB's is in a problematic state right now as we all know. The barrel is my old 22" blue bull barrel. I had a 30-06 comp barrel fitted to the .223's reciever and needed (wanted) another receiver to fit some of my addittional barrels to. The receiver on the .223 now did not fit ANY of my centerfire barrels the way it was, it was to loose on all of them, after a session of switch and swap I decieded on the .223 barrel for the new/used receiver. I shimmed it to fit and headed to the range with my rolled up blanket. I still would like to get a standard contour .223 barrel to lug thorough the woods for coyote hunting. The bull barrel shoots great but it gets heavy after a few miles walking or on snowshoes. I still like my .22 Mag Sportster for coyotes within 100 yards but sometimes and some places call out for a bit longer reach.....<><.... :grin:

And Quick, thanks for the help with the post and picture and a very Happy New to you also buddy!!!!....<><.... :grin:
