[QUOTE="gr8whyt, post: 460427, member: 28526"] Talked to my 'smith this afternoon. I was asking him if there was a way he could close up the bolt face from a magnum to a standard on my 700 Rem. Told him I was having second thoughts about the .257 Wby he was gonna start on for me soon. He said he could do it by sleeving the bolt face and cutting it for a Sako type extractor. Then he said "Wait!". He had a standard face bolt body laying around. He could give me that one and keep my magnum bolt body. And he had a reamer for a .25-06 Ackley Improved. He said he much preferred the .25-06 AI over the .257 Wby. So I said "Let's do it." I'm liking this a lot! I may be giving up a bit of speed, but from what I can find, not very much. Nice! -- gr8whyt [/QUOTE]
