Man this is killing me.
For one I am not the most patient man.
1 minute microwave meals are to slow.... I ussually get to 45 seconds and then eat it 1/2 cold. LOL

Just got an ETA from GA Jim and it seems he is all backed up currently.
Gonna be another 3 to 4 weeks on my grip and forend set.

Still waiting on my bbl for the Gun Garage too.

Good thing its so crappy outside or else I would be... well, I just can't write things like that online.. LOL

I realize both situation and do not blame them.
Its just hard to wait....


Thanks,
Shawn

You know how to keep this problem from happening again???


Get 2 or 3 more projects in the works. That way you can be working with the one you have and the wait time seem like less with the others. If everything works right you will be in my shoes in to time. What's that you ask??? Well I have 3 or 4 projects complete and I have not shot them yet. Seems like time gets away. And to top it all off I just mailed some dummy rounds to OTT for another barrel. Somebody please help me!!

2 or 3!!!!
Are you crazy!
My wife would kill me if I were to try a stunt like that. LOL
Besides I dont think my nerves could take it. LOL

OK ok, I actually have 2 projects going now.
One frame, but 2 bbl/scope set ups.
(7mm08 and 209x50)

I am getting one bbl "Gun Garaged" and GA Jims build for it and the ML is getting grips resized and refinished.


Thanks,
Shawn

Yep...two or three is the way to go. Wait until you are having barrels made!! I'm going to CO in the fall and have about four projects in the works for that...sent an XP to Allen Precision Shooting for a makeover (won't see that back for 7 months)...doing development for my .375JDJ...redoing development for my .338JDJ#2 using a different powder and bullets...and getting a Savage 12BSS .300 RUM ready for a friend that is going with me.

NOPE!! Just hopelessly addicted!!! What's really bad is I have bought brass and dies for barrels I don't have yet.

KYODE, I have 6 barrels now. Looking for a few more if the price is right. The one on order is a we barrel. I plan on a couple more OTT's soon. Scopes?, got lots of those, not all mounted yet. Like I said I got projects just waiting to be shot!!
