[QUOTE="baldhunter, post: 1555963, member: 11853"] I've been thinking about re-barreling a 22" barrel 30-06 I have,so I have been thinking about what to have a new barrel chambered for.I thought about the 280 versions but I already have several 7mags and a lot of brass and I just be trying to chase the 7mag with the 280.I have a lot of 30-06 brass and a 24" and a 28" barrel 30-06.I really cannot think of another cartridge I'd rather have than the 30-06 based on the bolt face of my rifle.Based on the wide range of bullets I can shoot in it and all the load data I already have,I think I'd be chasing rainbows trying to out do the plain Jane 30-06.The 28" barrel I have will get better than 3000fps with 168gr bullets with ease and the 24" will do 2900fps with the same bullet and load.I'm seriously thinking about going with a 26" barrel on my next one.
