subsonic switchbarrel
 
http://usera.imagecave.com/Spook/A338brwhisper.jpg

really crappy camera angle on a 338BR/W/7BRX338....McM McHale stock,PTG coned bolt and bottom metal.Rock creek 5R, SS, 6.5T, Rem varm taper....

Thinking hard about making a 300W/221/Blk/Fireball barrel to go with it that'll feed from those plastic AI mags...I have an extra .378 bolt to go with it.

Had to clean the drool off of my computer on that one! Very, very nice!

Guess I need to do some research on how a switchbarrel works. Still threaded to the receiver, just easier to remove?

...unscrew one barrel, screw the other one on....headspace is set from when each barrel was chambered... no silly assed nut to fiddle with or look at.
:confused: wonder how well a 338 can would quiet a 300/221/W/Blk/Fireball?

Thanks Guys:grin:

If it works anything like my 9mm can vs my 308 can, "both swr omega 30/trident 9" then it works quite well. More volume also so it should be just quiet or more so:cool:

I have had good luck with the 223 AI mags they feed like a dream.

Yep the plastic AI mags work flawless on my 300.

That last barrel I bought from you utilized a YHM 338 can. The owner said it worked AWESOME...
