It's all coming together real quick. so I got a few questions to make it all go a little smoother for me.
some info:, My First Post here on the QB. ...
. and This will not be the first rifle I have ever built and I am very proficient with .22 rimfire match.also proficient in Hand loading and load development ( but ) this is my first subsonic .30 -.221
Also: This 30-221 is going to be worked (Subsonic Only) and I am going with Boltaction for working platform.
OK this is what I got as of now:
Reamer and go-gage / 30-221
Glass / Leu. mk-4 with TMR ret.
SupCan / .30 cal.
On Monday (2 days) I am going to go with a CZ bolt action .223 cal. for a working platform.
Also going to order up a .30 barrel blank, 8/1 Twist. 6 land
Have not decided what stock to go with yet but it will be on a tactical style. hopefully the budget will allowed a McM or something as nice.

Ok questions:
1.- On the Cut, chamber/Throat. is there any reason I should Not, make it a little longer to give a little jump before the lands ?
2.- With my Reamer is The CZ Receiver in .223 , is it GTG ? . or should I consider it in a .221 for it's Bolt-Face ?
3. - Mag. box on the CZ action. Is there anything I need to modify or consider to keep my handloads to work in Mag. Box OAL of the .223 CZ ?
4.- My reamer is, .30-.221 fireball. So I understand this is 'Not' the same as the traditional ssk 'Whisper' in 300-221 ?.
also: Am I correct in my reading here on the QuarterBore forums that I can use .223 brass ? . in my sizing.
5.- ANYTHING I am 'Forgetting or possibly Screwing-Up Big-Time on ??? - or suggestions from experience.
thanks ..... ray
