111 Conversion 300WM to 308

[MeltedButter]

Thanks for all the feedback! I'm currently waiting on some of the parts to arrive, but I'll be sure to let y'all know how it goes and if I run into any trouble. @celltech, I went with an E.R. Shaw barrel I ordered off of Numrich Gun Parts, primarily because it was readily available and within my budget that I had for my rifle (at least so far). I did notice that there's different contours to the barrels; the one I ordered was 'factory contour', which I assume is the what the rifle comes with standard, right?

They have -0- description as to what a "factory contour" is. The "standard" profile on E.R. Shaw's site looks like a pretty light hunting barrel. Hope that is what you wanted...

You might want to look at Criterion and Shilen at Northland Shooters Supply. Jim is known to send out specs on the barrel contours. The specs he sent me were OD in one inch increments. All I had to do was specify which contour I was looking for. It also helped me determine weight.

And he is a sponsor of this site....

On Edit: I didn't realize you had already made the purchase. Sorry.
