[QUOTE="hilbillyconquest, post: 2937947, member: 27292"] I also was in this situation. I had a Christensen that made me fall in love with long range shooting. It had a HS stock and a TT diamond; it had a lot of rounds down the barrel and was getting long in the tooth so to speak. I ended up keeping the factory stock, brake, trigger, all that I had changed on the Christensen to really make me love it. I had ordered a steel HV Bartlein and was just going to re barrel it. But... It had the scope base come loose on that action several times, and I thought why put any money into, so I just put it all back together as it came from the factory, sold the Christensen for a good deal (to the buyer), used the money and bought a Kelbly Nanook action and used all the other parts I had on the Christensen along with the new action, chambered it in 300 wm with the rm reamer. I really love the rifle with no regrets about changing the action in the beginning and feel like now it was one of my better decisions. It too is a much better rifle than the Christensen. Only you can decide how you wish to proceed. Keep us posted. Good Luck! [ATTACH type="full"]507294[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]507295[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
