So I have been kicking around the idea of building and aluminum chassis for the Axis/Edge and wanted to reach out the community to see if you had any ideas that you could offer. The idea is to use some sort of premade butt stock, similar to this, http://www.ebay.com/itm/FAB-Defense-...item4d09c61d9a , machine the main body and trigger guard from aluminum billet for the action, and use aluminum tubing for a barrel shroud.

I would like to be able to use a fairly standard mag for this. Any ideas or suggestions? The rifle will be chambered in .308 with a Hog Hunter Barrel and Muzzle brake.

Please feel free to pick this apart and offer any better ideas than what I have listed above. I am going to talk with the machinist tomorrow. He is a retired Gentleman who loves special projects like this, especially when it comes to guns.
