Texas Sheepdawg-
I'm still confused about how Glocks found their way to a thread on bolt-action 450 Bushmaster rifles. Does Glock plan to manufacture bolt-action rifles? Could you provide a clue?

Thanks.

oops..... Sorry.... I will sit in the corner now...

I am ramping up to build a 450b Bolt Action myself. Seeing that it HAS been done by at least one member here, I do have some questions. I have located a barrel blank with a 1:20 twist. I see where it is advised to stay away from the 1:16, with the 1:20 be sufficient? Also, I plan on using a Stevens 200 (savage 10) action as I already have one chambered for a 22-250 and the bolt head is the same. This is where the other questions come in. Will I need to modify the magazine follower to feed the rounds correctly? I am hoping Pittbull will have some advice on this since he has pictures of the rifle he already built. Also, if it would make things "easier" I would be willing to use a long action rifle if that will allow the cartridge to free itself from the magazine without binding trying to feed into the barrel. I have already contacted Manson Reamers and that is taken care of...just want to have all of the important stuff covered before I invest a bunch of money only to find out I didn't start with the right stuff! Thanks All!

dogsniper-

I will start a new thread here in the Bolt Action section of the forum to try to answer your questions. I hope you don't mind. (What started out as a picture thread has gotten seriously derailed - but that's OK.

(Texas Sheepdawg, you can come out of your corner now. <grin>)

Pitted Bore,

Sounds great. Thank you. Hoping to have this build finished by NEXT years Indiana Deer season. I am sure at least some of you have read elsewhere the Indiana DNR rule changes to allow certain "pistol" cartridges in rifles. I know...this isn't a pistol cartridge....but really the rules deal more with the case length and bullet diameter than they do what firearm they can be used in. I'm a nut for the .452 bullet....big hole=deer that drop quickly! I use the xtp in my muzzleloader and my Ruger New Model Blackhawk...adding a bolt chucker Bushmaster to the group will just fit the bill! Once I get it completed I hope to work up some loads using the Hornady bullets, and think I am going to try the 275gn (460S&W) Barnes bullet. With the bolt action and either a 20 or 22" barrel I am hoping to really up the velocity...

I will be watching for the new post. Thank you again!

This thread has strayed from the pics, which is usual and OK.

To sort of bring it back, I'll note that I posted some images of my second bolt rifle in this thread: A Second Bolt Rifle

Okay so when are you gonna go into mass production? I want one.
