Free advice. Two things that I think are of paramount importance, take it for what'cha paid for it. Nummah one; make your chamber fit your full length die..... or vicey varsey. If you already have the Redding FL bushing die then have PPG make a reamer from it. Assuming that you DON'T already have the die....... then just get the gun built, fuh'GEDDAbout the Redding mess and call The Bros. Harrell. >>...

but have you tried it?

I have a Jerry Stiller Viper action that has the universal bolt face. 6ppc or 6br. I think the only difference other than the .473 bolt face is a bit longer extractor. I only shoot it as a 6ppc, but am thinking I "need" a 30BR. Got to keep the brain active... Donald

We're splitting hairs here but if I were to post a question about an action not working properly it would be on the Gunsmith forum.

I'll turn 700-1000 30BR cases from the same lot at a time. I sort them by weight because the winter gives me the time and I have to put them back into boxes of 100 pieces anyway. The variance in any one box is generally not more than 0.3 grains, which is little in the total scheme of things. As for measuring and weighing bullets, I leave that to Randy Robinett or Del Bishop. They have the better instruments and are better at measuring and...

my action is a right bolt left port. I dont think it will have one, but i may be wrong. This will be my first ever BAT Action so i am pretty excited. I hope it works out ok. I am sure it will. Lee

Keep in mind, what many refer to as a "wood" stock is not your grandpa's wood. Many of these are concoctions of Carbon Fiber, or some similiar material, laminated together with some sort of light weight wood. They are, in reality, more closely related to a synthetic stock that what the vast majority of the shooting public calls a "wood" stock. These have become quite popular in the past five or so...
