375hh to...something else tbd?
A lot of people have asked to turn their 06 or 7mag into a 375hh; I am asking the reverse.
I have a 375hh Alaskan Guide, controlled feed, top bolt release and blind mag. The 6.5lb rifle gets your attention, particularly muzzle rise and trigger guard destroying your finger. The recoil itself is fine though.
So I am keeping all options open but not sure what the options are, I am leaning towards a standard long action (since I already have a 111 7mag)
Let's say a 35 whelen: is it as easy as rebarrel, swapping to the standard bolthead, headspace, and use the existing 375hh magazine box? Any anticipated feeding problems or issues with the bolt since the original is controlled?
