You can yell and scream as much as you like...but it is still just a small cry in the wilderness.

Bulldozer is a bit of overkill...just run it over with your trike or scooter.

spook - I lost it on the way in, I looked on the way out and during the weekend.

What I'm trying to establish is, is there likely to be a greater variance in regards to head spacing if I go with a 308 over a 708. Given they are effectively the same case I'd have thought I was in with a good chance?

you mean use the same bolt for bot guns? yep that would work fine as @Kiwi Greg said all them cals use the same bolt face you would have to send both rifles to the gunsmith to get them both headspace the same so the bolt will safely work with both........

Out of curiosity, what would that cost?

What are the chances of bumping into a JAFA at the Oamaru hut with a T3 7-08?
