IMO, that is a good choice for what you are looking to do. I wish I bought the one I was looking at years ago, regrettably I didn't. I personally love that cal, to me I feel like its a great mix of not much kick, plenty of performance. Ideally you'd probably want to handload which I assume you probably do if you are even considering having a gun built as factory ammo is not readily available it seems. Buddy of mine has one, loves it. Still kicking myself.
