[QUOTE="CopperBasin, post: 1155197, member: 71895"] I inherited a .35 Whelen built on a Springfield 1903 action. I'm considering having it rebarelled to a smaller, speedier cartridge, but I really don't know what I've got. I have fired it and there are some problems that need addressed. About every 10 shots the firing pin does not strike hard enough to fire, it sometimes does not pick up a round from the right side of the magazine, and I have had fired cases not eject. I'm sure a good gunsmith could fix these issues, and if these issues could be corrected, what are your thoughts on the 1903? Thank you [/QUOTE]
