Got a new barrel yesterday, 16.5" 8 twist 300blk. Can't decide which action to screw it on, the rifle or the striker.
Found plenty of brass premade from a vendor, need headspace tools to get started. Recoil should be mild for either frame.
Planning to have the smith turn down a thread protector to take a barrel band front sight, or may reduce the dia to a straight no taper.

Anyone shooting lighter grain bullets on theirs? What would you recommend?
