[QUOTE="megastink, post: 2053857, member: 33429"] I was gifted a '37 model 98. It was chambered in 8mm-06. I posted on a forum, maybe here, about converting it to a .260 Rem. someone suggested that any caliber based on the .308 case might cause feeding issues. They suggested that a similar round that wouldnt have any feeding issues would be the 6.5x55 Swede. Brownells sells short chambered barrels for Mausers around $100 in many calibers. I found one for the Swede, and its now at my gunsmith being rebarreled at we speak. [/QUOTE]
