About to build a 330 Whisper

[daveosok]

I don't have the threaded rod not sure what you're talking about though?

The Stoney point one i have is threaded for about a 1/4 inch then has a shoulder to which a small 1/8 rod is squezed onto a "u" channel section of aluminum which runs through the center of the tube and has a brass nob to which you tighten down on the aluminum section once your bullet encounters the rifling.

Do you have a picture of this rod youre referring to?

To update the thread it should have read "About to build a 300 Whisper" must have been thinking about a 338 Whisper at the time of typing.

The reamer will be here Tuesday the 17th with a go gage. Got it from MidwayUSA. Should be a breeze as the bore is 308 and the reamer is what .375 or very close to it for max diameter. 33 1/2 thou on each side is very little for a reamer to remove.

Ohh I can now make rifles as I worked a deal out with a local FFL holder who happens to have lathes, and mills. If youre located in Georgia or even if youre not I can build guns now.
