[QUOTE="chris matthews, post: 28044, member: 66"] A couple of thoughts- The galling problem needs taken care of. If it's not too bad lapping will probably get it out otherwise it's machine time. HS barrels suck. If you want a good 6mm barrel, use a Schneider. I built my wife a 243 AI and it shoot sub 1/4 and I have built several others on Schneider tubes that all shot great. second choice would be a Rock barrel. Setting the current barrel back is an option depending on throat erosion- if it's gone for more than .100" or so it would take two full turns off to recut it and depending on the barrel contour you might not have enough room. What do you mean you have a medium length bolt? Remmy makes a short or long action. If it's a short stay with the 243 AI, if it's long go with something bigger. [/QUOTE]
