Default change my Browning?

I have a Browning Micro Medallion .243 that was given to me by my father. My problem is I don't like a .243. I really would like to rebarrel it to 7mm-08 , .260, or .308 , preferably the 7mm-08. Is this a simple rebarrel job since all are based on the same case or would other modifications necessary. There's nothing wrong with the .243, I just like a little more bullet weight and more diameter for deer. Give me some feedback?

Default RE: change my Browning?

It would best if you could trade or sell and get another used one. Browning barrels are notoriously extremely difficult to remove. A rebarreling and reblueing job can run ya around 400 dollars when its said and done.

If it was a 700, or 70, it would be easy to find a barrel someone removed new cause they are customized most often. So all a smith would have to do is set your headspace and touch up. But I jsut don't know too many people customizing a A-Bolt.

You can try to go to www.gunbroker.com and others and look for a take off barrel from a A-Bolt would be your best choice.
