meles meles Posted June 1, 2021 Report Share Posted June 1, 2021 Hmmm, should be an absolute doddle for 'im to mek* us a modern day DeLisle based around a 1 in 8 twist barrel chambered for .458 SOCOM on a Howa or Remington action, with an MDT LSS gen 1 chassis and a telescoping stock. Budget? Under £1,000. Like so, but better, 'cos Dave made it. *Mek, verb, old Yorks. To finely craft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baldie Posted June 2, 2021 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2021 Hmmn. Piqued my interest somewhat. having had a couple of donor actions based on the 300AAC and also the .17 fireball/.221 fireball, i can say, the actions are subtly different. Factory remmy's in these flavours, have their own magazine follower and mag box as a std gun, they also have a double scalloped feed ramp to function correctly. Shouldn't be a problem with a 223 mag , and built in .300AAC. I did notice on the video, that there was no mag usage footage though...... The .458 SOCOM ? Hmmn....would be a hell of an Urban fox hammer...... Under a grand ? Never. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
