Well, I placed the order for the barrel today. I have a 16" Stainless ordered from MDWS.

Do not relish to feel what the men that used these weapons felt when they saw the elephant. For the elephant has tusk and to see him is to have his tusk dig deep into your soul. You will always have a part of you that will be cold and empty.

seeing as I don't have a ton of disposable assets, I don't already own one. If I had more money, I'd already give you an AAR. Seems like a great play toy / hunting round to me.

Maybe I just like overkill, but if I were hunting hogs with an AR-15 I'd chamber it in .458 SOCOM.

Just got in the Charging Handel for my build. I didn't want to go with a standard CH so I ordered a Strike Industries ARCH-EL Charging Handle.
For $30 it's not a bad looking CH.
I have an upper and 15" hand rail on the way.
The barrel also arrived and I picked up a 5/8-24 three prong flash hider and crush washer.

:jacked: Meaning no disrespect, but even as a Buckeye fan I have never hated Michigan (never hated the Steelers either, as a lifelong Browns fan, and by lifelong I mean back to the Blanton Collier era). There are some SEC teams I have little use for, but the archrival has always been the honored enemy (to borrow from John Wayne) or the "gallant foe worthy of our steel" (Churchill) to me.Steamforger wrote:Probably being an SEC guy, I may have slipped some Big 10 humor past you.

I want Michigan to go 11-1 every year.

The Upper came in yesterday. It's a Billet upper by DAVIDSON DEFENSE

Re: Looking hard at the .277 Wolverine
I got all the parts in to build the rifle. My son said he wants to help me build it so I have been waiting the last to days for him to get home.
I did change my mind on the upper receiver. I'm just going to use a standard one because, the right rear side of the Davidson Defense upper didn't match up good with a standard lower.

Re: Looking hard at the .277 Wolverine
Very interesting... if it catches on and one or more of the big names starts making ammo for it, I'd be all over one.
