Cool project....i almost built a 375 raptor but decided i needed more powder so went with the wsm case.....be interesting how the slower 375s do on game

So you have a .375 WSM on a AR10?

No its off a stiller preditor action, 20 inch bench mark barrel.....im hoping for 2700 with a 280 hammer hunter

20" bbl, sound like a quick swinging/handling combo.

I almost feel bad for the coyote you shoot with that thing.

I've shot coyotes with the .375 Ultra Mag/ 260gr Accubond combo.

Good grief!

UPS finally delivered the scope, mount and trigger yesterday evening. Swapped the Mil-Spec trigger out and got the scope squared and mounted. I guess weather held up my NIB bolt carrier group so it should be here today, then I will be able to shoot it. I ordered some Lehigh Defense 250gr Controlled Fracturing bullets along with some Cutting Edge "Maximus" bullets but they won't be delivered until the 26th.

Start a gun shop, then sell them to us for half, use the loss as a tax right off. :tup:

Sell it to me on credit. 

In return, I will send you a certified letter promising to never pay you. 

You can then write it off as bad debt. 

Should I PM you my mailing address?

You just need to be a “security guard” or animal control specialist. You’d be able to write off the guns as necessary tools for work.  :tup:

Oh yeah, yorke has a great idea.  Who knows, maybe you could become partners with Billy The Exterminator and have your own Reality TV show. :chuckle:

One last tweak! I have to file down the inside guide ribs on a few Magpul LR's so the larger diameter necks of the .375 don't expand the Mag.
