well, i finished threading and chambering the schneider m40 barrel that is going into the mcmillan A4 stock. tomorrow i am going to cut it down and thread for the Badger fte muzzle break. decisions, decisions.....20 inch?, 22, 24..... been tossing it around in my head for the last month, while i was waiting for the reamer, among other parts, and getting up the nerve to try my hand at doing all this for the first time. well, now its crunch time and i have to decide on the barrel length...its a .308, and will be shooting 168 smk's. dont really have any plans on how far i will be shooting, but the longest i can shoot is 200 yards at the range i go to.. so it really come down to aesthetics, i guess. btw, the chamber reaming was very tedious, but somehow very relaxing and kind of fun. i wasn't in any bit hurry, and just took my time. turned out really nice...if i must say so myself
