As some of you may know I was having a lot of issues with my 7mm mag. I was debating switching rifles and calibers rather than face the issues. Well, last week I pulled the trigger on a new barrel and a bunch of parts. I had a gentleman in South Dakota make me a new 24" barrel and it will be arriving tomorrow! I am having the bolt shipped out to Idaho for a bunch of custom work. Besides the trigger the only two things that were factory are the barrel and bolt. I will be posting before and after pictures and updates in the coming months. If all goes well should be ready to hunt Texas whitetail come November!
 
Should be a nice project
 
Barrel arrived today. 24” 1-9 twist. Shipping the action and bolt out tomorrow for some work.

Lots of shooters have placed well with Remage barrels in various competitions. Decent little system for sure.
