ok guys...so I have a bunch of 110/10 series rifles and have changed barrels and calibers back and forth in almost countless configurations. Short to long, long to short, .223 to .243, 6.5 Creedmoor to .223, etc. I recently came across a smoking deal on a 7mm-08 youth axis with a Leupold VX3 3-9x40 scope on it for $300. After selling the scope, I have about $100 in the rifle. New project! So I don't really have a lot of need for the 7-08, so I am thinking of putting a ridiculously accurate model 10 barrel I have laying around on it. On a 110 series, I would replace the bolthead, use a different magazine box, and with some gauges I would be good to go. Same here with the Axis? If anyone's done a .308/.243 series down to .223, I'd love to hear what you did, how it went, and where did you get your parts?!

thanks!
