saami, the can story is that i just created it myself :)
but, at long last i'm up and running with my 300 whisper. i decided to use the original stock for the first round, was to impatient to start shooting it.
i decided to have the barrel 16" and it seems to balance fine with or without the can.
when i removed the glossy finish on the stock it was but ugly underneath. seems that my relatives in finland color it prior to applying the glossy finish. i tried to clean it up and then i just blindly picked something from my shelf and it turned out to be green.
i installed a picatinny rail and a bipod, not sure how the final version will be.
i have fired a few test rounds and it seems to work very well. the plan is to use cast bullets from my 120 and 200 grain lee molds. ammo is getting so expensive and that has been the driving factor in this project.
now i'll be using some 7-10 grains of powder behind my ww cast bullets, so thats as inexpensive as it can get.
here in iceland Vihtavuori is the most common powder and i have some v110 to start with. i also have some 123 grain fmj's to play with. i got some 300 nato .223 rounds that i have converted so now its going to be big time play time :)
