[QUOTE="Rifleman97, post: 1545837, member: 103996"] Pretty sure the bolt face on the 223 is too small to simply be re barreled to something much bigger as far as I know, if you’re looking for cartridge suggestions the win mag is the median between the 300 rum and the 30-06, but honestly I’ve taken deer at roughly 650 with the 30-06 with no issues. Never used a Mesa but I love my ridgeline from CA, they have a great value. 300 WSM is a good round too if you reload, as it’s harder (not impossible) to find than 300 win mag or 30-06. 308 would even be a good option but I like the extra little oomph of the 06 over the 308.
