I originally budgeted a cost of about a $1000 to do what your doing - ended up closer to $1500. Jesus (Don't tell my wife)

Strut64,

I see your point about quality brass and the no-turn neck chamber. That sounds like good logic.

I'm assuming that number includes your optics? I will not tell your wife. Gotta keep things on the level.



Joe,

I'm in Pennsylvania, but we can definitely work something out. I bought the rifle new over 10 years ago and have hardly fired it, less than 200 rounds that I loaded modestly. Please be aware that this is an 11.5-twist tube. My intention is to buy the action vice, wrench, etc., and do the swap.
