Thanks for your answer,you are wiling to help me, and its so nice of you. I do have book, and Video from Mr. Brown, its great help and full of tips. I was gonna go to Colorado last August to meet him and others,but things didn't work out. I was asking for suggestion, if any of you did use AYA 20 gauge Magnum actions before ? My goal was to find out if i could build 405 Win. on it ? 405 is not on his list of calibers. This is my first build, so i am going to do it safe way. That's why i am going with 45 Long Colt on Belgian BAYARD hammer 16 gauge action. 45 LC is legal deer hunting cartridge here in Indiana. I built many Mauser's and am familiar with most problems they present, when building big-bore rifle, using Mauser actions. This build, however is something very new to me, and all help i get will help me. Thanks again, and i hope all is well in your neck of woods.
