[QUOTE="Leaf Litter, post: 2666072, member: 124584"] I hunt a 35 caliber state also, likely the same one, and I'm just starting my 35 whelen build. I just bought a new Tikka T3x Light in 270 Win to use for the action, trigger and mag system. I debated for a long time on the pros/cons and cost difference between a JES rebore and just replacing the barrel with a custom from Mcgowen. JES seemed simpler, slightly cheaper (not much after paying shipping both ways) and less work for me at the cost of quality. Rebarreling will be somewhat more expensive, depending on how giddy I go with extras, and a lot more work, but I feel it's a better end product in terms of quality, accuracy and options. After reading your experience I'm definitely going to spend the extra $100 or so to get the new barrel. Will the extra cost be worth it? I sure hope so. [/QUOTE]
