Mosin Nagant .in 300 Win Mag.

[Monger0317]

I'm pretty green on the Mosin rifles. I'm curious to know how you would go about converting one to a .300 Win Mag. This article one I found froma awhile back. And has sparked my interest.
I know these rifles are cheap to come by as my local shop has some 91/30's for around $150.
Check out the upper right image, it's not the best.

Not an authority on this rifle but I'll venture a guess that it will cost more to do than it's worth.Some people build for building's sake and that's fine if you enjoy it.But from a practical standpoint I'm not so sure.I'd say if YOU can do it go for it and show it off...

That's pretty cool- check out the Super Sniper on top of it.

Is Super Sniper the brand of Scope? Seems like everything is labeled Sniper these days.
Looks to be an aftermarket bolt also.

Good advice here. Yeah, it might be possible (are Nagant's strong enough?). But I'm thinking the smith bill is going to more than offset any savings you get by going with a Nagant.
