Awesome. I have two rifles from RBROS. 7mm SAUM and a 300 win Mag. Both rifles are the real deal.

Looks like a shooter. Get a suppressor and you’ll be set.

I'd start with a custom repeater action I wanted, have Steve Kostanich fit and chamber the barrel, most likely Lilja, and do everything else myself.

Some people build customs because they are good enough to squeeze out every bit of accuracy they can get.  That’s not me.  For me, a custom is getting a chambering a stock that I couldn’t otherwise get.  I am an M70 guy who likes metric calibers.  My next rebarrel/restock will be a 9.3x62 M70 with a McMillan Edge Compact.  This will match my 7x57.

I have an IBI Ultimatum HMB action sitting here and a Pacific Research Remington Short Action stock, so I went ahead and called Lilja this morning and had them get going on a 26” 1:11 #4 profile 20 caliber barrel.  The barrel will probably show up about August so I’ll have it fitted and chambered and back to me by September.  I should have it all put together by Christmas time. 

I don’t know why, just something to do I guess.  I put together a 20 P on a Howa Mini in a Boyd’s AT-One that has a 26” Preferred pre-fit barrel on it for my kids.  It would be hard to outshoot that rifle.  It’s extraordinarily accurate.  I’m going to chamber this one in 204 Ruger.  It’s for me.

Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

Every father should remember that one day his children will follow his example instead of his advice.
