I have a new 30-06 barrel that I bought cheap when I had a LA 30-06 bolt face ARC Nucleus. I had plans to build a short barreled (can) hunting rifle in 30-06.
I ended up selling off all my actions a few months ago when I got a job in Germany. Covid killed the job off, so I am back to buying guns again.
The barrel is new, I think it is a Bartlein or Shilen, I don't remember.
Anyway I have a new Zermatt TL3 that is a magnum bolt face, and it wants to be a gun.
Can the 30-06 barrel be rechambered easily for either 300 PRC or 300 Win.
Looks like the 300 PRC is .17 longer at the neck junction. Is that long enough to clean up the chamber?
I bought this action to build into a 7mm Blaser, but I figured I might as well do something with this old 30-06 barrel at the same time.
