[QUOTE="orion2000, post: 599221, member: 32578"] DSK, I appreciate the feedback regarding 'smiths. I will either send the barreled action off to Douglas, or use one of the smiths on LRH. At this point the rifle is a used .300 WM with factory barrel that is not very accurate with two factory loads that I have tried. Rebarreling to another .300 WM would be the "practical option" from the stand point of ammo availability, ammo selection, resale potential. However, I am sometimes not a "practical guy", otherwise I would just buy another off the shelf, factory rifle and go hunt. I already own a .375H&H that shoots very well by my standards. Having a pair of accurate rifles chambered in "classic" H&H cartridges appeals to me. OTOH, the .300Wby offers come significant upside potential. Whether I would use it or not, is not clear. Once I get the money together, I will probably just flip a coin, build a rifle, and go hunt... [/QUOTE]
