[QUOTE="James Jones, post: 65909, member: 8843"] well first off I'd work the stock over , bed it and float the barrel and if that doesen't help try fire lapping it with a Tubbs kit and have the crown cleaned up. That would be the cheapest two fixes and still if it doesen't do what you want have it rebarreled. As for the caliber choice any of the cases based on the 308 like the 243 up to the 308. Or like mentioned before the 6mm , personaly i don't like the 6mm in its factory shape but love it in the Ai version (I'm just to lazy to keep triming brass) and in a short action its kinda hard to get bullets to touch the lands and still fit in the mag unless its custom throated. But having it sent off to Pac-Nor would be a good cheap way to have a good job done. and if you guys reload you could choose a wildcat caliber or one of the Ackley improved versoins like the 260Ai or my new favorite the 243Ai but if your gonna have it rebarreled you owe it to the smith to put it in a decient stock.
