Hello all,
I am new to the forum and recently purchased my first savage rifle to do a build just for fun. It is a model 11 in .260 rem at the moment and I was thinking of rebarreling in 6.5x47 Lapua. I am looking for some feedback on the caliber choice and recommendations for a barrel. I plan on replacing the factory plastic stock with a laminate stock and looking for a light varmint contour barrel. Also I would appreciate any info on how to go about determining a starting load for this round.
