[QUOTE="MajorSpittle, post: 2029879, member: 53101"] Most people buy a rifle and don't rebarrel it. I currently have a tikka, ruger, and 2 Remington with stock barrels. '06 with 11", 270 with 10", 243 with 9", and 6.5 PRC with 8" twist. I spent $500 on the 6.5 PRC which was the same it would have cost to rebarrel each of the other rifles to get the proper twist rates for their chambering. I see no logic in spending $500 to rebarrel a $500 rifle that will still be worth only $500 after it is rebarreled. That's why the Creedmoor and PRC are the biggest successes this century. [/QUOTE]
