[QUOTE="tbrice23, post: 1213884, member: 59502"] I re-barreled my fathers Remington after I inherited it. It took a year or so for me sort out my feelings about doing it, quiet like what you are feeling. My deciding factor was that the rifle just wasnt very accurate with the original barrel and wouldn't have been used at all in its condition. Rebarreled however I'm much more likely to use it and think of his memory and I'm sure my father would approve of my using his rifle in this way. Otherwise it would definitely have been in a safe and rarely seen. Yes, re-barreling does change the fact that it isn't exactly the same exact rifle in every small detail but if re-barreling it makes you more likely to use it and thus feel closser to him every time you use it I bet any money your brother would approve.
