JUst a word of caution on Lone wolf after market barrels. The chamber is at or near Saami Specification for the Cartridge not the Saami chamber specs.
I know that sounds odd, but something that i learned through school of hard knocks. Lone Wolf barrels are advertised as match grade and they will say tighter chambers . They dont say if chamber gets a little dirty then rounds dont fully seat. They dont say if lead reloads must be sized/swaged down to less than the specfications for the cartridge they will seat. Only go in about half way.
commerical jacket bullets work just fine. I suggest you measure your reloads or send them three dummy loads when you order. Otherwise they want $30 to re chamber
Just my observation for my woes and telling the errors I made.
