[QUOTE="ak7an, post: 1386682, member: 103414"] I have looked online and replacement barrels are few and far between, and like you said no guarantee that I wouldn't be in the same boat after rebarreling. I would definitely do a Pac-Nor or similar replacement. Pac-Nor can even do a contour copy of the original so it would still have that original look. Not sure if I would want to go to a larger bore and caliber. The action is what I would call a medium not a long action so that would limit what you could go to. As far as pressures 8x57 or 35 Rem would be safe alternatives. I think the 358 or 338 Fed would have to be throttled back a bit and that would kind of defeat having that done. Thanks for the great suggestions. I will post a couple of pictures when i remember where I saved them.. My CRS is kicking in.:eek: Take care and God Bless. Ed [/QUOTE]
