Thanks guys. Forgot to mention it will be a 7WSM

That's a handfull of sweetness.
Re: striker very close to being complete
This is a route I have been considering lately, but had an issue with finding an existing striker or making one from a new, unassembled receiver....
I am hoping/assuming that by using a new, unassembled action, that you are "manufacturing" a pistol with what would commonly be a rifle action?
Are any of the existing new target actions matches to the Striker action? Same mounting bolt locations, etc?
Eventually I'd like to make a 300 blackout pistol with about a 10-12" barrel but I'm still weighing my options when it comes to actions.....
Thanks for any advice or pointers, in advance!

Re: striker very close to being complete
No, from the pics, I'd say he is starting with a Striker action, right port, left bolt, kind of distinctive. Always a pistol.
But you can start with an undesignated target action and make a pistol. BUT, their not available in left bolt.

Re: striker very close to being complete
thats correct its a striker. shoots very well at that. I was getting roughly 1.25" 200 yard groups with the same load as my rifle. both barrels were cut with the same reamer. i was looking forward to load development but oh well
Re: striker very close to being complete
I was wondering when someone would do this?
Re: striker very close to being complete
Very nice! I never thought to have XLR make a Striker stock. Good job thinking outside the box!

Re: striker very close to being complete
I like it! I have an XLR rifle stock which has worked well for me, now I may need to look into getting one for the Striker as well.
