I reckon if you love the rifle a new barrel for 1000 isnt out of world but you got a .223 now so the trebly can stay origonal and retain collector value. unless youwant to headshoot bunnies at hundy yards,and maybe want to pop goats at hundy-150 the trebly is going to have to be pretty shot out not to do the job ok.

The trebbly is just fine, barrel is shiny and crisp and like I said, it overlaps shot after shot. I liked the action so much I was looking for a Beezer in 7x57mm..the one that came up had minor pitting at chamber end of bore. So I thought to buy and use it until a new barrel was indicated but frankly, the GS put me off the idea. Bought an Interarms Mark X instead
