Ok…soon I will have finished building my second Savage modular platform used as a barrel switch (or swap as others would say…!!!). I wrote this before; I love the ease of being able to change barrels and…voilá… you have a new rifle, plus the glamour and pride associated with building your own rig. I love the trifecta stock-action-scope and by switching the barrel I have another rifle I adore. Oh well…you all know this stuff already. My first rifle is alternated between a 6 mm BR and a 6.5x47 Lapua (on a Savage F-class stock, target Savage action, and a NF Competition scope) used mostly for target shooting up to 1K. Soon, after I will take possession of the McMillan A4 stock I ordered, I will have completed the second platform which for the start is made up by the stock I mentioned above, a single shot Savage target action RBLP, and a Shilen 28” .308 barrel (I opted for this caliber because I have another 308 I am selling and have all the reloading paraphernalia available plus I like the round) and perhaps my Vortex scope. My question to you guys is what options might I have for the alternate switch barrel for the second application? [Having a single shot would even allow me to use cartridges otherwise suited for a LA.]
I mostly shoot targets, I don’t hunt, I don’t like heavy recoil, I want a round that is not finicky or too expensive to reload, good BC, available resources.
Please justify your recommendation. Thank you.
