does this put some kind of danger or will I be alright util i decide to rebarel or get a recoil lug in
Matt
No danger but good recoil lugs are inexpensive.
One does need a good solid sound perch especially on the RUM cartridge. The more the bend the more the action screws get hammered.
I will take that barrel when you decide to get rid of it.

Well i have been wanting to build a 7mm stw so that might happen soon especial since I need to change the recoil lug but i am kinda likeing the 300 rum potential
Matt
Personally I am a 30 cal and above kind of guy. One would have to offer me two 7mm barrel blanks for a 30 and I would probably refuse to trade.
I will have a 300 RUM barrel for my Striker shortly.
