    @Bill999 yeah sure an expensive bush pig but I have spent to much on it now to go back hahaha and I also like the fact that ti Remington sets it apart from some of the others, and once done it will be a rifle I will keep and use it rather then having it sit there not getting used much once I get my 7mmwsm up and going. the 6.5 is good and I have shot goats from 50yrds to 750yrds and its good but the cost to re work the brass barrel after 600 odd rounds will be the same cost to do all the work needed to convert it to 308, I have shot apox 100 rounds so far and it has cost me alot for nz hunter to load ammo as I don't have dies for it and when I shoot out the brass to replace it with lapua brass just isn't worth doing
