Hey Guys,

I'm starting/planning my second build on a Stevens 200 action. It's a long action centerfeed doner that will be converted over to a .260 Remington. The purpose of this rifle will be a general Texas hunting rifle (Deer, hogs, whatever needs killing).

I've already put in the GunShack 6.5 group buy for a 24" magnum contour barrel, but I'm having second thoughts. I've not been able to find any pictures of folks that have this barrel installed, and I'm worried because it's a LA/CF action that I won't be able to find something that will fit. That said, I purchased a Bell & Carlson Duramaxx stock and am hoping the gap won't be too unsightly.

I think I'm calling SSS to order a replacement trigger later this week, and get one of those single shot converter sleves so I don't have to deal with mag migration drama into that stock.

Anyone have any thoughts on this build? More importantly, anyone have any pictures of a E.R. Shaw Magnum contour barrel installed in a varmint channel stock?
