308 win to 300wsm

[anthonyinva]

I have a trued rem 700 308 win with a hart 25 in barrel that 1-12 twist. It shoots good and only has 5-600 rounds down the tube. This is only a hunting rifle because I have several custom bench guns to shoot 100 to 1000+ yards. I would like to increase the long range abitly of this weapon. My queston is can I rechamber with out losing any barrel length, and it now shoots the 155 bergers best but with the added bullet speed will I be able to stablize a heaver bullet.

thanks gang

merry christmas

It's not really cost effective to spend the money on the bolt modifications neccesary to be able to shoot the WSM's.

You 12 twist will stabilize up to the 190's, and stay super sonic to a 1000. How big do you need to go?
