Right now it's a Steyr M95 in 8x56R. Once my project is done it will be a Steyr M95 in 50 Alaskan

Need to get the barrel profiled (ya' think?

) since that 1" thickness ain't needed w/ a <40,000CUP cartridge. +500gr @ 2000fps will be a shoulderful, though

. Gonna make a recoil-capable stock for it, too.
