[QUOTE="Darryl Cassel, post: 28045, member: 34"] To the original poster. You said; My options are as follows: 1. rechamber this barrel - same caliber $300.00 "Rechamber cost should "NOT" be $300.00. It should be a bit less then a new chamber in a new barrel" 2. rechamber to another caliber - which one should I go to still using this action and magazing. Have to stay with 6mm. $300.00 Again---Rechamber to another caliber should NOT be $300.00. 3. new barrel with any cartrige that will fit the action. Are the wsm's worth looking into? $600.00 New Barrel 26" to 28" $250.00 to $300.00 Tops. Chamber job $125.00 to $150.00 TOPS Where do you get the $600.00 rebarrel fee? That is extremely high. If your gunsmilth quoted those prices, find another gunsmith. DC PS---The 6mm or 243 are fine cartridges. The WSM takes a Magnum bolt face. [/QUOTE]
