Would be a great sub-gun as well as a youth doe gun with supersonic loads.
Trying to do this on a reasonable budget and thinking of using the hogue stock.
This will be my first custom build, so any recommendations would be very helpful, and of course pics would make it that much better!

I bought a 300 (whisper) that Spook had built . Had a 1/8" SS barrel, cut rifling - Rock if I remember right . It was built on a Howa action . Put a EGW pic rail on it. Shoots 220 mk around 1/2" . 18" barrel length . Put it in a B&C varmint stock . I would recommend a Varmint contour . I have a heavier barrel which makes it heavier than is needed . Put a Vortex Viper scope on it and it works well . If you need some help, contact Spook and he'll give you good advise and can build what you want without breaking the bank or taking 6 months .
