I hope this is the right place to post. I searched and couldn’t find where this topic was discussed before.

I have a Savage 220 slug gun. Since straight wall cartridges have taken off the way they have, I have not been able to sell my 220. I thought I would simply swap the barrel to a center fire rifle caliber to use for elk or long range deer.

Has anyone ever done this? I assume it would be either a long or magnum action. I would have to change the bolt face accordingly as well.

Thank you for your time
