Its possible with the right parts. Since your present rifle uses a small shank barrel you would need the same in the 300 WSM chambering. Normally the 300 WSM uses what they call a large shank barrel. Additionally you would need the correct blind magazine, spring and follower. Correct bolt head would also be required. Since your rifle is a left hand model don't know about the availability of left hand bolt head in the WSM chamberings. Either Brownells, SSS or Midway should have some or all required parts. Barrel could be a 308 Winchester that's rechambered to 300 WSM.

Sharp Shooter Suply will have every thing you need. I converted a 223 LRPV to 300WSM and Lisa helped me get all the appropriate parts.
