[QUOTE="Buffalobob, post: 62058, member: 8"] Better coke than beer. How much rum did you put in that coke anyway? Being originally from Alabama my grasp of the english language is somewhat fragile so let us try this again. He wants a 300wby in a light barrel. That would have a .308 hole in it. I suggest a 270wby which would have a .277 hole in it. This increases steel around hole by .031. About a 10% reduction in the bore diameter. This is no great amount of steel but it is accompanied by reduced recoil which helps both the "light" gun and the shooter. I have put my glass of milk down so I don't ruin my keyboard because I am afraid you will tell me you like the feel of a 300wby going off in a 6# rifle. [/QUOTE]
