    What range(s) do you expect to shoot pdogs at??? A 223 might suffice and won't be a barrel burner unless you just want a barrel burner. Or a 6x 45?????

    I've got a pdog kill at just over 500 yds in SD, no red mist or aerobatics, but I did put a hole in it. LOL..

    I didn't want to buy another rifle. I'm a lefty, and they are never on sale. I was hoping to work with what I have.

    I too shoot LH and have put together LH rifles this year. The first I bought local, a mdl 11 in 308, I put a SS Shilen Select Match 24" varmint contour 1-12 twist 22-250. The second was a mdl 10 action with a SS Shilen Select Match 24" 1-9 twist in 260 Remington. Both rifles shoot very well and finished out just under 9 1/2 pounds ready to hunt with.

    I'll echo what has already been posted. Buy a barrel and the necessary tools to change them, win, win in my book. It'll only take 15-20 minutes to complete the job at most.
