Come Yorke, no one likes a quitter :chuckle:  At least now you know what the problem was.  Little peace of mind.

Sad deal.

I had no idea how accurate the name was going to be when I started this! :chuckle:

A part of me really wants to give it one more try, but I actually accomplished my initial goal. I wanted a 140gr bullet over 3500 fps from the 28" barrel and a 170gr bullet over 3150 fps from a 25" barrel. I hit both of those number pretty easily, so my basic concept and design was good. This was just a matter of working with the wrong team to meet the goal. After a little over $2000 in smith work, barrels and reamers I think it's time to call it a draw and run before I keep throwing money at it.

Maybe I'll call the next project the B.O.A.T. (Break Out Another Thousand) :chuckle:

How about a a 6mm GOAT. (Great out another thousand). And I'll give you $200, a snickerdoodle, and a 6pack of your choice for the broken 28" platform ;)
The best equipment in the world is useless to the idiot who doesn't understand it.
