rebarrel a handi
« on: November 21, 2010, 10:18:04 AM »
I have a .280 handi with a 26" heavy barrel and have been a fan of the .303brit ever since I used one as a lad for hunting.  Is it practical to have my handi bored out and a rim cut for the .303?  Who do you recommend?

You need to check out the case diagrams... the 280 is bigger than the 303.
The case head is larger and the case is longer... it just won't work as a rechamber.
