[QUOTE="Elkeater, post: 1484838, member: 103670"] hey all. I have a remmy 700 SA chambered in .308 win. I’ve been Kicking around the idea of rebarreling it to .284 win or other sub .30 caliber round. And no I don’t want a 6.5 Creedmoor. Obviously the rifle being chambered in .308 it doesn’t have a magnum bolt head and I’d like to keep the gunsmith bill to a rebarrel and blueprint. Was thinking of a 24” barrel instead of the 26” plus break that it has now. I’m hoping to keep the recoil reasonable and don’t want a muzzle break. This would be a longish maybe 600-800 yard max deer/antelope gun. I’ve already got a .300 win mag to cover elk. Any thoughts on the .284 win in a SA or options for other calibers? [/QUOTE]
