Hello, I am new to the forum. I am considering changing the barrel on my sons youth model 11 rifle. I bought this rifle as a package and then put a low end Leupold scope on it for him. Nice rifle, but it is chambered in 7MM-08. I think this is a great round, but it can be expensive and difficult to find. I am thinking of putting a .308 barrel on the rifle. This will make ammo cheaper and much easier to find. Does anyone have an idea on where I could get a decent barrel that will fit? Anyone think this is a bad idea? I am open to any suggestions. Thanks for your help......Barry B.
