Im tired of Knight stuff. I wanted the Ultralite completely changed but they didn't listen. I don't want that long stem on breech plugs. I wanted the bolt to be like a rifle bolt to pull the primer out of the breech plug. The primer would be inserted into the breech plug not the bolt.
This is a big reason why I got Bestill building me a 45. I am still using the 17/4 Lehigh plug cause his is 416 stainless. But it will be head spaced and stuff accordingly

OK Tom - you have some people that are totally interested in a reborn Omega or what ever name it comes up with... And you could pencil me in for a 1/24 - 50 because it is more versatile to a larger group of people and a 1/20 - 45... that might rival Idaho Ron's Hot Rod Renegades... No competition in the market place right either as Chet said!

But think if you put a GOOD tapered SS barrel on that (take away the TC barrel) and with the other corrections already discussed - GEE WOW!
You know I even think it might be somewhat less expensive to build over all. No machining two pieces for a hinge - a one piece CNC cut stock.
I really want one or two.
I really need to sneak this in also think about how it might be converted to a Western - just sayen
Plus you need to tell Terry that this was all your ideal and that I need one of each....
