Bought a 7mm RUM a two years back for out west hunting. I am not a reloader, and at current 140 cor-lokt is the on factory loading available. I'm thinking about having the gun re-barreled to 300 RUM. Can this be done with the current receiver, and if yes, what are we talking about in cost? Open to any suggestions. My thought is if I can re-barrel in the 300 RUM, I would have many options for ammo. Also, I brough the rifle to a local gun store,a nd they would only offer $385.00 for it. I have the Model 700 LSS. The gun was fired less then 40 times. After hearing the offering, thats what got me thinking about hey, I already have the model 700 action, why not re-barrel. Again, open to any suggestions. I would be using the gun for out west Mullie/Elk hunting....
