[QUOTE="BigSkyGP, post: 444413, member: 28118"] I doubt you've shot your Wby enough to burn out your barrel. I wouldn't worry about getting a barrel for it yet, you can use up the original barrel working on your shooting and your reloading. I would go in this order: 1 Optics, $250 Nikon on sale, maybe. 2 Reloading, learning how to make/work up good loads. Never start to soon. 3 Bedding, if you need it, cheap to do your self. If your considering swapping your stock any how, good time to learn beadding. 4 Trigger, crispy is more important than pull weight, an expensive trigger doesn't do as much as trigger time. A safe trigger is more important. 5 Barrel now, if you have gotten more accurate than the original barrel, or you finaly burned it out. 6 Stock while doing the barrel, or shortly after. This is my opinion, I'm usually on a budget. This would give you time to scrape up save money, etc, and still get out shooting, before everything is done. [/QUOTE]
