Build One: 15" MGM Stainless Steel Barrel in 223 Remington with factory taper. Blued Encore Action with factory Rubber Grip and one of Tony's Ebony Eleven inch forend's. Glass is a Weaver Classic Extreme 8-32X, 30mm Rifle scope. Warne Vertical Split Rings, Evolution Gun Works Base,and a Triton Bubble Level. At some point I will probably swap out the blued action for a Stainless one for this barrel. I need to check with Amber and see if my gun case is done for this one.

BUILD NUMBER TWO: My local gun shop just got in a new Stainless Steel Pro Hunter Action this morning. I put a $100 deposit on it before it got away. It would have been nice if it had a Walnut Grip, but that was not the case. The Black Synthetic Grip version is starting to grow on me a little. This one will get my 7.62X54R MGM Barrel installed on it. Full Bull, 15.875 Inch with a Four Gill Muzzle Brake. Evolution Gun Works Base, Four Warne Vertical Split Rings, and a Bubble Level. I will need to get Tony on the Phone tomorrow and get an Ebony Eleven Inch Forend in production. This one has a Weaver Classic Extreme 2-10X, 30mm Rifle Scope. I harvested a deer at around 130 yards year before last with this barrel.
This means I will need to get another case on order from Amber for this one.

This gets me down to a 260 Remington BullBerry Barrel without a dedicated Encore Action. I am getting close to having all my barrels turned into complete hunting handguns one at a time.

Lol, I know that feeling. It especially sucks seeing the "8-10+ weeks" on their site.

I brought home the Pro Hunter Action for build Number Two today. The Gun shop is going to ordered TWO more Actions. I plan to trade the Blued Encore Action on Build ONE back in for a Stainless Pro Hunter Action when they come in and pay the difference. I will probably put the Second Action on that order on layaway for the 260 Remington BullBerry barrel if the shop gets both that they ordered shipped. That will give me all Stainless Pro Hunter Actions for all FOUR Stainless Barrels. Looking like I will need Tony to make TWO more Forends for me. I plan to hold off on that order until I am sure all the actions come in.
