[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 927409, member: 12995"] I just birddog'd a 1986 model 700 ADL in .270 Win at a local store for an awesome price. And I already have a new 26" .308 Win 1:12 heavy barrel sitting at my house. I'm thinking true it, rechamber the .308 barrel to .30-06 AI, and that I would shoot the 168 Berger VLD's for whitetails. Might be a pretty nasty deer rifle, and not overkill. Anyone got anymore info on it? Load data? Cartridge pictures? Is it best to use .270 brass to account for OAL shrinkage due to the wall and neck expansion? Or can I just use regular .30-06 brass for it? Reason I ask, is because I have to use .270 Win brass formed and trimmed for my .25-06 AI, because the walls and neck forming cause the brass to shrink about 0.0200". I hope regular .30-06 brass is ok, because Lapua makes .30-06 brass, and I love Lapua brass. [/QUOTE]
