[QUOTE="matthew lofton, post: 1368917, member: 103716"] Hello LRH. I’ve learned a lot reading threads from this forum over the years but just now became a member. Not really a true long range hunter...yet, only have self taught experience to 500yds as that’s longest range to shoot at anywhere around where I live in South Florida. I have a question regarding a barrel re-bore. I put together a rem700 257wby with a 28” #5 Hart and it’s intended use would be in a box blind overlooking a a peanut field where I hunt in S. GA with possible shots out to 700yds. As I’m doing more reading, I’m thinking I would have been better served with a 270wby or 7rem mag. Do any of y’all know of a place I can send this barrel to have re-bored to a 270wby, or am a stuck and have to sell it and purchase a new barrel? I’ve already talked to hart and they will not re-bore even tho its their barrel. Thanks in advance! [/QUOTE]
