Well, the way I'm looking at it....I have a Savage 110 in 30/06
It's bolt face and magazine will be fine for the 35 Whelen Swap barrel kit, which is $175 complete with everything I need for the conversion.
Since I have an 8mm/06 the 30/06 is a lot of overlap....I can afford to do without it...I could probably sell the 30/06 barrel.., it's in excellent shape, .. another savings
So really, for the $175 and very little work, I'll get my 35 Whelen
The $$ I save I'll store away for the 375 H & H that is farther down the wish list.
