    I would go for a used higher end barrel rather than a new Shaw, they are good barrels just not target barrels, and the 6.5x47 with it,s small case capacity, they are not hard on throats.

    RUMs are like woman in Stiletto heals, you know they are going to put you in the poor house, but that has never stopped anyone from pursuing them.

    I'd go with the heavy varmint at 26 inches, 1/8" twist.
