I used to live in Montana, that's where I got my call sign. Now I'm in Oklahoma City. That's a good idea about finding a gunsmith, I'll check around and see what I can find locally.

Might want to update your address with FCC if you're still operating HAM...as for a gunsmith, it looks like Precision Firearms is stepping up to the plate and will ream a true Grendel chamber for $75 plus shipping...
