[QUOTE="BEEMAN, post: 1151593, member: 38130"] Would need to open the bolt face going from 30-06 to 300 WM. You could look into building a 6.5 of some sort and would not need to open the bolt face(6.5 Sherman,260,Creedmore,6.5X47 etc). Could just do a 30-06AI to. There are lots of options unless you are stuck on the 300WM. On another note, I would really recommend a muzzle brake if you go with a 300WM. When shooting 215 gr bullets and higher there is a fair bit of recoil. Some of the other caliber suggestions I gave may not be suitable for game out to 1000 yds. The Sherman will the others probably not quite. [/QUOTE]
