[QUOTE="Worriedman, post: 1298827, member: 16530"] I am wanting to do a rebarrel to a .338-06 AI, I am thinking that my best bet (time constraints included) would be to use a donor Savage 116 30-06, (and yes I know that the 30-06 can do everything the .338-06 AI can, except have a .338 slug...). I have come up on a guided elk hunt in Montana, most likely my only chance ever due to advanced age, (out of State brother paid for it in response to my doing the heavy lifting in taking care of our aged parents for a number of years) and the guide says my 7mm Rem Mag is not my best choice. For those who are far better versed then am I at this sort of thing, is the small shank sporter barrel size adequate to rechamber for the .338? I have talked to Pac Nor and the timing would work, I do need to pull the trigger quickly though, pun intended... [/QUOTE]
