Excuse my messy bench.
Looks like it's coming together. Was the barrel an interference fit, or did it slide in like stock Ruger barrels and some aftermarket ones? When I fit my Kidd barrel into the Kidd receiver it was extremely tight requiring some heat to the receiver and cold to the barrel along with anti seize, and I still need to rubber mallet it in. I don't think it will ever come out. As far as the micro grove rifling, my 39A has that and it shoots pretty well, but what is the common wisdom on that type of rifling on target grade barrels?
Thank ya sir!That looks sweet. Nice job with the pics

Excellent. I'm sure that will shoot well. To get the most out of it don't depend on bulk ammo. Spend a bit more for target or match grade. 2x price (so maybe $7 or $8 for 50 round box) but so much better groups. My fine rifle likes Ely Match and Club and Wolf the best, with Wolf edging out a slight bit. However, the liberal lub on the Wolf is a bit hard to deal with when loading a mag.
Again, nice job on the rifle build. Post back after your range time.
