[QUOTE="A/1-61, post: 2963403, member: 127316"] [B] I have a Remington model 700 7mm STW Sendero that is about 28 years old plus or minus. I put nearly a thousand rounds, maybe more though I may have in my younger days heated the barrel up excessively at the range. It does not perform as it used to. Originally I could get a 1/8 inch MOA and lately I am lucky to get a 2 MOA. My question is," can I rebarrel my fluted bull barrel and replace it with a pencil barrel. My consideration for this is weight and accuracy of the first shot. I'm not interested in long strings anymore. My first choice would be a Hart barrel as I am not that far away from their facility in Western New York. Of course, if this is possible, I would replace the stock with a carbon fiber stock. My 76-year-old body just doesn't perform well carrying 12 lb of rifle around anymore. Or, should I start from scratch and build a rifle? Cost is everything. I know that there is a large amount of knowledgeable information on this forum and would appreciate any opinions on my question.[/B] [/QUOTE]
