[QUOTE="NDAR15MAN, post: 1688341, member: 31706"] Sorry on the late post here and not trying hijack thread so for give me on my earlier question this am. Re barrel is putting on a completely new barrel on stock and gun and changing bolt face etc if needed. Then another way to do it is cutting a barrel ( the bore ) the length of barrel ( ha ha , have to or you blow your self up , ha ha ). So cutting a barrel and making a new caliber out of a old barrel you have to go to a larger caliber correct ? . Sorry for the stupid question. So while I am here you could always go to the next bigger size caliber then what you have cutting into a new barrel if wall thickness is there ? . Right ? Like could you go from a 243 to a 6.5 creedmoor ? And if so does it make since to re-bore a barrel to a bigger caliber ? With today’s prices might be cheaper to just buy a new barrel ? Thanks trying to Answer some dumb questions here , but always thought about this question. Marty [/QUOTE]
