Put anything you want on it, you will have to change the bolt head and magazine for sure.  Larry

Would one of the  WSSMs work w/o changing the bolt?   I understand feeding can be a problem with WSSM cartridges.

Let's see.........$250 for a barrel, $300 to chamber and headspace......or just go and buy a TC Venture or synthetic Tikka for less money, and they are guaranteed to shoot under an inch at 100 y.

What would you do?
Vote them all out, EVERY election!
 
Does anyone remember the scene from "Quigley Down Under" showing the aborigines lined up on the skyline as far as you could see?   That needs to be US!
