I have an older model 11 in 300 wsm. I won the gun, so I didnt have a choice in the caliber. Only have 40 rounds through it, but am not a big fan of that caliber. Based on what I have, what other calibers can I change it to with minimal amount of parts. I am looking to go to a lower caliber if possible. The rifle is non Accu stock or trigger.
Should be able to do any wsm/wssm or any magnum i.e. 7mm rem mag with only a barrel change.
SO if I was to go to a .243 WSSM, I will be good to go with just a barrel change?
Don't know about whether just a barrel change will work but I do know if you are going to go the .243 WSSM don't even consider a barrel that is not chrome lined. The use up barrels fast. All the Winchester barrels are chrome lined in this cartridge.
Yes just a barrel change is good. All WSM and WSSM cases are based off the same thing. Mine even appears it will feed the wssm from the magazine also.
How much for your old barrel your replacing?
TACO, IF YOU WANT TO GET RID OF THE BARREL LET ME KNOW. RICH
