« on: February 20, 2013, 09:08:01 AM »
 i would like to rebarrel a lft handed tikka  into a 257 weatherby.  my question is can this be done with just the cost of the barrel.  i have a 300 win mag to use as the action.
thanks

Don't have the book here but check case length. If the 257 is close should be ok. It may require tweeking the feed lips a bit but should work fine..
