[QUOTE="spdrman, post: 607517, member: 34092"] I have a win model 70 300 win mag that I was thinking about robbing the action out of, I was just going to shoot the gun as is and save up to build a custom gun, I let a buddy borrow it for a few years and he beat that snot out of it, the only thing that looks good on it now is the action and I dont want to go to the range or hunting with it looking how it currently does, I got the gun on trade and have maybe but 5 shots thru it, my big concern is being able to seat the bullets to the lands, when I reloaded for it a few years ago for my friend we had to seat the bullets pretty deep or shoot it single shot to get it close to the lands, I was wanting to rebarrel it to a 7mm rem mag, if I have a barrel made can I have it set up to where I can have the bullets fit in the mag but still be close to the lands or would I be better off choosing a different caliber or selling it and starting with a different action [/QUOTE]
