So I made a snafu and had two barrels chambered for an Impact 787 when I actually had a 777. Trying to find a 787 with a magnum bolt proved to be extremely difficult, until I talked with Altus. 15 minutes later and one phone call later, they were able to secure an action and I had it about a week later.

Trying to find two new 7mm blanks wasn’t the smartest idea once we decided we wanted to try the NF Steel Challenge next year. A call to Custom Rifle Barrels and they had two barrels sent to the smith. @StraightJacketArmory constantly comes in clutch and had these to me in no time. They have become my go to.

I wanted to start this thread because we always read about long wait times, out of stock items, and bad service. Making a friendly phone call or two to some of the vendors that support our sport proved to help me remedy a situation that I created for myself. Now, any tips for the NF Challenge send them my way! 😂
