RR,
Better watch out, that gun building bug might bite. Got me about 14 years ago, been doing it ever since. Couldn't afford to buy what I wanted, so started to build. Now, some that I build, cost a small fortune for just the parts! Right now I'll in the middle of building a 38cal rifle with a cherry stock blank. The barrel was off an old Pedersoli that someone ruined trying to pull the breach plug without first pulling the bolester. I had to cut the end of the barrel off and rethread/rebreach. I plan on using it for squirrel hunting. I noticed a few years ago that small calibers(32's) were getting harder to buy. Most manufactors/distributors don't want to get "stuck" sitting on small calibers, so they push 45, 50, and 54cals. Good luck and have fun building.
