so ive finally started getting a parts list and parts together for my 358bfg ive been wanting to build since they came out. as some of you know indiana has some wierd firarms whitetail laws. so far i have a

wincester 70 25wsm coyote
mcm stock
dies and brass
and i ordered a seperate encore barrel in 358 for my father.

all i need now is a barrel and im set.

the final product will be a

trued mod 70 action
tactical bolt knob
shelin 24 inch #5 match barrel
mcm stock

im still deciding if i want to switch out the bottom metal and possibably add a vias muzzle brake. but it feels good to be on the way. i also think i mise well save the 25wssm barrel and make the rifle a switch barrel. a 358 will mainly be good for a few weeks a year so if i save the 25wssm barrel i can just put it on this time of year for a backup coyote rifle.

what are you folks thought on the brake?
