PigOPs Wrote:With a hornady oal gauge. 123sst hit at 2.275" which should be perfect. My 120 Accupoints can be seated even further. I also visually inspect it as best as I can. I am of the opinion that tx got a lemon when these barrels are typically known for being nice. My mlgs Sabre barrel was real nice.

I picked-up Sabre 14.5 barrels, unfortunately I got one of the lemons. With the Hornady OAL gauge, the 123SST hit at 2.230 but with the 129SST I'm getting 2.280. Go figure? I was planning on using the 129s anyway, so I'll still be able to make a lot of lemonaid.

Looking forward to pics of your build, sound very interesting.
