Some of you have seen some of my posts asking questions and posing options to get a custom 327 federal rifle made.
I have considered stubbing a handi, rebarreling a 340 savage, a Ruger M77 or even a highly figured Ruger #1.
So far, I have acquired all the dies to reload all 5 of the cartridges this would accommodate.
I have also acquired a Beretta Tomcat in 32 acp, another gun I have wanted for some time now.
Today in the mail I received 200 Hornady 32 ACP cases, 100 Starline 32 magnum and 100 Starline 327 Federal.
I have plenty of primers, and have some other brass and bullets coming soon.
And man I looked FOREVER to find what I did!!!
I also put my name down on the current .312 mold group buy.
I have plenty of 2400, Unique, Blue Dot and Lil'gun, which should cover all 5 cartridges.
I have acquired everything BUT the rifle I want.
Now, here is the question I should have asked to begin with:
To all of those experienced in such things(I am not), if you wanted to have a 327 rifle made, in either a bolt action, break open or falling block, with fancy wood and good potential accuracy, crisp trigger(or even double set triggers) and a fairly decent scope, with a total price tag of $1500 or less, what gun would you start with, why, what barrel would you choose and who would you trust to do the work?
All suggestions are welcome.
As are any reasons NOT to use any of the actions I listed as potential projects.
Thanks,
John
