[QUOTE="Viking264, post: 1268756, member: 97833"] If I was going to re-barrel an existing long action, then I would really be looking hard at the 6.5x55mm AI. There is such an abundance of quality once-fired and new brass available for considerably less than any other 6.5-caliber cartridge. I have been getting once-fired Norma from a guy in Sweden for something like $0.25 each. Even new Lapua in 6.5x55 is less expensive than other 6.5-cartridges (because they produce so much of it for competitive shooting in Sweden and Norway). This is the route that I will go once I have pulled the existing barrel off of my T3 Sporter. [/QUOTE]
