Default 30/357 Eh?

Some of you may recall way back i was talkin about a long range single shot pistol built on a martini action. Well------Here ya go people. I had to buy a rifle barrel for the pistol and that seemed a waste, so I built a carbine to go with it. Not finished yet, but at the "work the bugs out" stage.

I like it Chambered in 30/357. that's a 357mag necked down to 308. Loads I've worked up so far thump in a most satisfying way, and the muzzel flash is a wonder to behold. I'm planing on using it in 200mtr matches, and hunting
