Remauto1187 I would not want to see you hurt with that thing. I would be happy to dispose of it for him
That is a nice rifle. Great score. I have a soft spot for 700's Let us know how it shoots. Why are you thinking of changing the barrel? That should be a tack driver.
Because i'd like to shoot longer ranges which neccesitates heavier bullets which wont be stabilized by the slower 1:12 or 1:14 twist rate of this barrel. I need 1:7 or 1:8
He slughfoot i'd be real happy if i could figure out twist...i've looked everywhere on the barrel and cant find it. As far as rechambering in 22-250 i'm not real sure yet. all i know is i want to keep it in the short action format but beyond that no real desires so far.
