2 of the same rifle, different calibers?
Anyone out there have 2 of the same rifle but in different calibers?
If so feel free to share which rifle model/calibers.
Just thinking, if you already have 1 rifle you really like, and want/need a new caliber, why not get the same rifle but in a new caliber? or do you think spice it up and try something new?

Sure do. There's 13 or 14 10/22's here of which all are .22lr except one in .17M2. There's also 7 Ruger #1's. One in .22-250, one in .7x57, one in .30-06, one in .45-70, one in .405 and two in .300 H&H. The .30-06 one is likely to become rechambered to .22lr.

If I could lay my hands on a pre-Berretta Sako L591 in 257 WBY in good condition to go with my L691 in 300 WBY, I would.
My stepfather had two BLRs, one in 243 and one in 308. When he died I took the 243 and BIL got the 308.

What is the difference in recoil betwween the .270 & .260 ??
