    Would someone please post the contact info on the JES re-rifling service?

    That 22-250 #1 is just crying for reboring to 6.5x57 or .260 Rem

    THank you so very much.

    DWS

    EDIT: oh ratz and shucky-darn!!!!!! Just googled and found his website, I'll call him later but so far looks like he only does 35 cal and larger work, if his home page is up to date.

    time for another plan. Who does good re-rifling in smaller bores? any suggestions?

    A 375 Holland and Holland makes a dandy cast bullet rifle as it. No need to rebarrel or rebore

    Thanks I appreciate the assistance, I did that, thats how I ofund he didn't do smaller bores. I talked with him yesterday---nothing smaller than .338 at present, so now it on to figuring out a plan B

    Plan B, type in "deltagunshop.com" then click on "clearwater reboring". Get all the info you need. Plan on sending a 22-250 Browning B-78 to them for a re-bore to 260 Rem.

    if they are all cheap enough, buy them all, sell several to offset the cost of 'changing' the ones you want.

    One day I'd like to get a ruger #1 in 243 or 30-06.

    Plus when you rebarrel you can order a longer straight section just front of receiver to mount talley bases right on the barrel so as to retain POI, instead of the wandering 1/4 rib. Also shim your forewood so it only contacts around hold down screw and you got a real gun
    A system that plain works

    Smile All said and done-

    Well, folks, I ended up purchasing the 30-06 and the 45-70. The rest of them got away from me before I could raise the funds-
    Man, this single shot rifle thing has bit me hard- I recently purchased a beautiful Browning BPCR 45-70 from TexasMac- did I tell you she's a beauty????
    Found a little Ruger#3 I think I'll grab, very quickly, as well as a Hoch falling block put together a few years ago by Meacham Tool & Hardware in Idaho- its currently in 17x256win caliber, but it wears a Unertl 16x scope- pricey for sure.

    Does anyone know if that Ruger#3 action will make a decent schuetzen rifle???

    Oh, man, did I get bit hard!
