That is fantastic.

9.2lbs? Baby weight! Love the short fat barrel. I have a 458 socom built on a rem 600 action for my portable thumper.
My current go to tractor gun is a customized single shot Cooey Model 84 with a chopped down Enfield barrel re-chambered in 7.62x25. At least until I build my shortened action Swedish M96 in the same cartridge this winter.
How much for the same unit in 300 Weatherby??
Should not matter as the chambering is the same for pretty much all normal cartridges. A 30 cal barrel blank has no chamber. The key to under 18.5" barrels is they have to be "manufactured" rather than simply cutting down a factory barrel. Stupid laws brought to you by simpler life forms.
If you're already wasting so much unburnt powder, why not a 300RUM? Still wondering what the 12" barrel velocity is and with what bullet?
Nice, I have 3 rifles in MDT-LSS chassis with 16" barrels so a little longer than yours but still awesome compact fun guns
