Etronx to centerfire conversion

okie

Gold $$ Contributor
I've noticed the Etronx rifles are getting reasonable. Does anyone know how difficult,or is it impossible) to convert to regular primers?? I've never seen one,but an action and HS stock will cost more than I've seen them listed for recently.. THANKS
 
I got one of these a few months ago in 243 with 1800 primers. My plan was to play with it till the primers are used up then convert it.
The trigger is easy,But you need to mill a little off the action for the safety to work. I got a new SS Rem. trigger on ebay for $35.00.
The bolt is a nother thing the threads are left hand were on a centerfire they are right hand.So the easy thing would be a new bolt they are going around $200.00 plus it will need fitted.
I have a lathe and a fairly good shop and I'm going to try to fit a firing pin to this bolt.But not going to try till the primers are used up, It shoots great for now,if I find a deal on primers I'll keep it as is.As odd as the trigger feels I'm begining to like it, I only have around 60 rounds thru it so far.
