Building for PRS... this seems like a real challenge to me, maybe y'all can make it an easier decision.
So i recently picked up one of those area 419 barreled actions (Tenacity/ Proof Comp 6GT) that they no longer sell... I have a 6XC reamer and barrel as well (both barrels are heavy contour and low round count) . I have more/better brass for the XC and a lot of 115gr DTACs. I have as many 105 Berger VLDs for the GT, but less brass and the brass I have is Hornady (GAP head stamped).
The GT has 5/8x24 thread and I have a G3 fat bastard for it. The XC is not threaded and I have an EC Tuner Brake to put on it if I go that route.
What would you do FIRST? Both barrels will probably happen eventually, but if you had to pick one, what would you go with and why?
Also, would you put the EC Tuner on the 6gt while it's at the Smith or just run it with a G3 Fat Bastard?
