well i dont know if this is the place for this but here goes anyway, and im sure if im in the wrong place...someone will prolly set me straight.
i have a ruger m-77 in 25-06. ive been tempted to build a beanfield rifle for awhile now. i want to re-barrel my 25 to a 270 win. with a heavy barrel and custom trigger. currently it wears the factory syn stock which pleases me as the pull and drop are perfect for me and i like the newer syn stocks ruger makes.
so my question to this faturnity of shooters is this...has anyone built such a rifle first off...second, will it compete with others as a cast boolit rifle.
id like some feedback on this project as it will cost me a bunch as i live in a state that has limited smiths and im not sure how to arange to ship it to a competent smith for the work.
also im interested in cast boolit shooting with the .270 as well as jacketed stuff.
thanks for your input and again...if im in the wrong place...please forgive
