[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1192265, member: 2736"] Normally barrels are short chambered only a few thousandths shorter than the finished cartridge and in many cases only the cartridge that it was short chambered in is the only thing that will work. If you check the head space you could be sure. If you are not interested in loading for it you would probably be better off just selling it. The other thing you could do is have a gunsmith set the shoulder back and chamber it in 338 RUM. (It would clean the chamber up and you could buy ammo for it. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
