[QUOTE="Gunpoor, post: 1183279, member: 8358"] I think rebarreling your action to shoot the WSM cartridge is very doable but you will probably need a new magazine or at least a new follower. You should confer with a reputable gunsmith to see what his thoughts on this are. I had a custom FN Mauser that was chambered for 308NormaMag and it needed a new barrel and asked the smith I used if he could rebarrel it to 300WSM and he didn't want to do it. The action was control round feed and maybe if it was a push feed he would have been interested. I settled on a 264Win and the rifle functioned flawlessly. [/QUOTE]
