Could I rebarrel a 25-06 in 257 Weatherby? New bolt head and magazine?
Yes and you could probably rechamber that 25-06 to the 257 Weatherby.

Sweet! I need a new barrel anyway and now have to decide between 25-06AI or 257 Weatherby Mag. Sorry to hijack this thread.
AI is cheaper to build and shoot. 257 mags are hard on barrels if you shoot a lot.
i was hoping i could put a 300 winmag barell on it or 7mag my gun is a model 12 bvss that was a special order through savage
you can, and if you had asked to begin with, it would save time guessing whats on your mind.
you will need a different bolt head and mag if you plan on a repeter
If it is a stagger feed, the bottom of the action will have to be opened up to fit the magnum mag box.
ill swap u a 300 mag barrel for your 25-06.it is on 112 bvss at the moment. stainless. 26". 150 round count.
i dont know i havent even shot it yet,but if i do change it id like to do a 7mm ultramag or 300 ultramag
If you're going to the Ultra's, your best bet is to shoot it single shot.
will i need a different bolt head if i want to turn it into a 7mm ultramag
You'll need a magnum bolthead, same as a 300win or 7mmMag.
