Hi.
Swedish member posting.
I have found a Remington 700 BDL in 30-06 for a reasonable price.
My question is:
Is it possible for a gunsmith to turn this gun into a 300 wby mag without changing the barrel?
The rifle twist of the 300 wby mag is usually 1 in 12" I belive, and I guess this barrel is 1 in 10". Can it still shoot 300 wby mag with the 1 tur in 10" rifle twist?
Also, will the action be enough for a barrel change to 338 Lapua Mag?
Thanks
Keep on rockin in the sandbox!
best wishes from Sweden.
