Thread: What to do with my Omark ?

Not shooting FTR anymore, so the Omark has become a bit of a safe queen.

Thinking about options for turning it into something a bit more suited to occasional ELR shoots.

Been talking to gundoc and Jaco Goosen, but keen to hear other opinions as well.

The bolt face does not have a lot of meat, so I am stuck with .470

H2O case capacities:

30-284 : 66.2gr
30-06 : 68.4gr
30-06 AI (assuming +5%) : 71.8gr

It is a single shot, so no mag length issues to complicate matters, and if I need to, happy to pull the bolt to get a loaded case out.

Guess what I am after is a 470 bolt face 30 cal chambering that would allow me to send 200gr + projectiles downrange as fast as possible.

Any better ideas than 30-06 AI ?
