shaw 358 win barrel

[dave1957]

I have a model savage model 111 in 7mm rem mag and a stevens model 200 in 243. I would like to change the 111 into a 358 win if the long action would work. If its a big job I could switch the 200 over. I am new to this and would like your input. Thanks Dave

Isn't the case head of the .358 win and .243 the same? And doesn't .358 fit in a short action? The 200 just needs a new barrel. The 111 needs a new bolt head, barrel, and maybe magazine box.

Definitely use the Stevens action and keep it simple.
