We both will have Pacnor barrels with a 2" difference in length. I am following your re-barred with interest. To be honest I am a bit skeptical on how the longer light weight barrel will shoot in terms of accuracy. Say I was to work up a load & found a accurate load in my rifle. There would be no guarantee the load would shoot well in your rifle.
I seldom work up a load to my satisfaction with 50 rounds fired. So if I were to attempt to work up a load there would be little I could to assure myself Id find a load that shoots to my satisfaction with 30 bullets. Shooting safe is one thing that is quite predictable. Shooting accurate tends to be a bit more of a trial & error thing.
A load that shoots well in my rifle may shoot very well in yours. Nearly as likely an accurate load in my rifle may not be accurate in your rifle, even if our barrels were technically identical. I would feel marginally comfortable reloading for another individual if I was able to fire the loads in there rifle. A safe load in my rifle may or may not be a safe load in your rifle. bigger question mark is if a accurate load in my rifle would be a accurate load in your rifle.
At 300 yards the level of accuracy Id wish for would be a crapshoot under the circumstances available. From a form fit function standpoint Id feel more comfortable if I had the actual rifle in hand to work up a load. Im very clear that is not doable. As for legality I am un-sure, especially with Comifornia being involved.
So practically speaking I am not interested. Leagly speaking I am uncomfortable enough that Id unequivocally say no thank you!. Not that I am not intrigued. Never mind the fact we know almost nothing about each other.
Think I mentioned in another thread that no factory loads shot accurately to my satisfaction in my rifle. No reason to expect a accurate load in my rifle would be an accurate load in your rifle.
Ill continue to sit by on the sidelines following your experience as much as you care to share.
