[QUOTE="dwinmeade, post: 2186030, member: 111253"] It has been said that if you load up a 223 w/Barnes 62g TTSX, it'll hit deer like a 243...and if you...load up a 243 w/Barnes 80g TTSX, it'll hit like 6.5CM. I grew up w/Remington 600 in 6mm and I once asked my gunsmith why my Ruger 22" 243 (sold it) wouldn't group like my Rem 600...he said "Remington tried to fill a niche with a cheap carbine rifle and ended up with one of the most accurate 18" barreled rifles they ever built". You have in your hands a Remington masterpiece. Before you rebarrel it, I'll buy it, as is! Don't ruin it by modifying it...it sounds like your solution is a better bullet selection.
