    Rechambering 6.5CM to 6.5 PRC

    Just wanting to make sure I'm not missing anything -

    I am thinking of having my 6.5 CM barrel rechambered to 6.5 PRC. This is on a short action (3.00" box). I know I will need to swap bolt faces. I don't plan on loading any ammo longer than 2.950"

    What am I missing? Any issues with having a 6.5 PRC on a small shank?

    Thanks!

    No problem. It will be fine in a Small Shank. May need to mess with the internal mag feeding. Maybe not.

    What are they charging you to re-chamber? Unless it is very cheap I'd probably just pick up another barrel chambered in prc. 6.5CM ammo is considerably cheaper and more available- so the ability to go back to it when you are not needing the additional speed could come in handy.

    Anyone know where to get a bolt face other than PTG?
    Is there a Savage factory bolt face that can be used?
