[QUOTE="Tommy Vaughan, post: 22001, member: 419"] I've got an old Gale McMillan made Signature in excellent condition with a .280 Rem., 24" cut rifled barrel with a heavy contour. The rig wears a Leupold 2.5x8 VariXIII and meets the weight limits for the hunter rifle class for which I'd like to use it. Given this limited information, what should/could I do to the rifle if anything to make it better serve my new plan? Should I rechamber to one of the .280 improved forms? What bullet is recommended? Is the 1 in 10 twist stainless barrel too slow? I like the crisp 2.2 lb trigger the way it is. Thanks for any tips or suggestions for my new project. Tommy [/QUOTE]
