[QUOTE="Shane Lindsey, post: 1342846, member: 25831"] How does it shoot now? For sentimental reasons maybe leave it as is. (Easy for me to say I haven't been passed down any family bolt action rifles). I have a Rem 700 with a 22" barrel -not factory but 1-12 twist. I shoot the Berger 180 Elites at 2720 fps, not fast but accurate. According to the math this would do what you are asking it to do easily to 600 yards if the gun is capable. Maybe work the trigger over and see how it does. Then look to build/buy later. I have had a few that were made to shoot after a barrel swap amd trigger work. None were Wins though-Ruger and Rem 700s-all from 1974-1978 production. I'm sure one of the gents on here who do gunsmithing work can tell you if its a worthwhile build project. In the end, make it what YOU want. [/QUOTE]
