[QUOTE="Garycrow, post: 791707, member: 30743"] The 6mmBR will feed in a savage repeater with the centerfeed magazine. I've got a M12 BVSS that started life as a 22-250 and is now a 6BR, it feeds well with the centerfeed mag. As for rechambering a 243 to 6BR, I suppose a gunsmith could cut off the chamber then rechamber and rethread, but I doubt it'd be worth it with a factory barrel. For all the work you'd likely not save much money over going with an aftermarket pre-chambered barrel and you're still stuck with a factory barrel. The 9.25 twist isn't likely going to shoot the 105-107gr. bullets. A CBI pre-fit is $300 from northland shooting supply, just screw it on and go shooting. [/QUOTE]
