[QUOTE="Mike 338, post: 1089361, member: 41338"] Mostly simplicity of barrel swaps. I figured it would scratch an itch to fiddle around with an inexpensive action and easily switch barrels while keeping a proven stock, action, scope combo. Maybe save a little space as a barrel doesn't take up the space of a whole different rifle. Go from short, light backcountry rifle to stout ambush rifle with relative ease and back again. And... I haven't done it before and it sounds fun. Although I'm a little obsessed with trying to get decent performance from my rifles, I can live with knowing that not all my rifles are the "best" I can afford and sometimes, pretty good is good enough. On a good day, I'm about a 1/2" shooter so if I'm getting close to that... Nobody's ever around to see me shoot or hunt anyway so a rifle that's a little ugly and hodgepodged together, but meets or exceeds my expectations pleases me quite a bit. That said, I can't find any fault in your reasoning. [/QUOTE]
