[QUOTE="therifleman556, post: 1506087, member: 101898"] I've got a steel/blued Weaver K2.5 lying around I think. That would require a different bolt handle and likely inletting the stock for it unless I wanted a very high scope. I was initially a bit disappointed when I gave the barrel a good scrub down, there's noticable light pitting near the muzzle and who knows what the rest of the way is like. I though if all else fails and it won't shoot I can send it out west and have it bored out to 9.3x62. A rifle like this needs a metric chamber, I think. I've always wanted a 35 Whelen, I could have them mark the barrel 9x63mm huh?:D [/QUOTE]
