hey gents, im currently in Afghanistan looking around at ideas for my Howa 1500 .300 WinMag. i have ordered a Manners T4 stock that i am very excited about, as well as the millet 4.5-16x50mm tac scope, and finally a timney trigger. The part i am having trouble with is finding a heavy barrel and muzzle brake. any suggestions are much appreciated!

talk with the guys at GAP about ideal barrel contour and length and twist for your application. I run a PWS brake on mine and love the shit out of it
