@camo-wsm hay mate ezy way to get around that problem is to use a whytts single feed box as I have a 7mwsm that is built the same no need for a saum
@ebf its not the cost of the pills or powder it runs but to form the cases and barrel life also dies it all adds up and every one likes change. you can get a McMillan stock form nz hunter or dead eyes
Barrel life is sort of a sunk cost, shoot it out then change. Same with your brass, presumably you've already got the 20 cases required to wear out the barrel
Brad would spin to find out his old baby is becoming a .308
Almost worth doing just to see his face.
16" and put a ti can on it for pure bling

Pretty expensive bush pig
Thought of getting a spss and cutting that back and save you a re barreling?
Pop the McMillan on it and your up and running?
At least then the bolt face will be right
@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
Is this the titanium that @Wildcats on here was selling?
@camo wsm yes it was that one
Sweet was a good looking rifle if only it was a 7mm fatso
@camo wsm would have been perfect in 7mm or bigger 6.5 just isn't my cup of tea haha
20" is a good compromise in .308 for bush and some longer shots. Plenty of bullet choices and inherently accurate. Get a really high quality match barrel, have it chambered and fitted by a gunsmith that specializes in accuracy work. Don't get it fluted as it's too risky. Get a Jones Custom Products bore guide to protect your new barrel - they machine a bushing to match your high quality cleaning rod that fits in the rear of the guide.
