    Got to shoot both of these guns yesterday. The 308Win chambered gun is not for me. Especially with the shorter bbl. Possibly if it was a 1:9 or even a 1:8.5 twist and the bbl was 24 inches long.
    The 6.5 was unbelievably lacking in recoil. AND accurate. These guns would also be a great platform for a "different" chambering. Especially a wildcat or reloaders only chambering due to cost of ammo. (6.5-300Wby Mag,7STW,224Valkyrie,25-06AI,270Wby Mag,etc,eyc,etc. --- SAWMAN
    You gentlemen with these guns should get jj to turn you a bolt knob like he has made for his guns. They work great and are of the PROPER design. --- SAWMAN

    Does your "etc" include the 300 Blackout with a 24" bbl? Criterion makes such a replacement bbl.

    That would be interesting. Wondering what you would get from a BO coming outta 24 inches of bbl.
    Hopefully a 7 twist also. Shooting the 125's would most likely outshoot the crappy creed. --- SAWMAN
