[QUOTE="Gregg C, post: 2830847, member: 103471"] Haha, yeah I'm the first person IVE ever heard of altering one, too! I ain't skeered! I thought about the 284... But, I bought an in stock barrel, today, in fact, in 243. I just looked at the 6mm SST... I'd have to open the bolt face .030 on radius. Not sure about that... Next thought, was 284 necked down to 243. Custom dies, I think, but not insurmountable, and bolt face stays the same. Good brass is available for the 284... 243 AI , I wouldn't need brass, just dies, as I've got a good supply of NATO 308 on hand. I know that they're hard on throats, tho. [/QUOTE]
