I kicked off my latest project to re-barrel and restore a very rough Ruger No3 that's currently chambered in 6mm-222.
I wanted something for which i can cast and something that has a case size close to the current chambering, so that there should be minimal work getting the ejector to work.
I considered 300BO but i've owned a 300BO in the past and wasn't a fan. I thought about .38 Super Automatic which would be a good plinker and something very unique.
But then the practical side of my brain took over and i decided to go with .357 Max.
The barrel and reamer have been ordered and the gunsmith scheduled.
Is there anything i should consider with the rebareling? What would need to be done to the extractor to convert from rimless to rimmed?
