James, I have a reamer and Buffalo arms has the brass. It is a 22 caliber by the way. That would be quite the over kill such a large action for such a small cartridge , lol.

Decisions, decisions! I like 14 flea too, 380 necked to 14 cal. My friend had a rook in that one time. 12 grain bullets. It would be massive fun! An elephant of a beast at the range. Rodney's, what is the hoop strength? Would we be stretching it? Later moodymustafha

Just got my Aston parts and trying to decide on a caliber. What do you think about 297-230 Morris long? Any opinions? Barrel? Reamer? Stock preference? Loads? Pressures? Scope choice? Inquiring minds need to know!


I think you should run the 297/230 Short to help tame the recoil  Grin
