Making Winchester Angle Eject Model 94 in 375 win

I have seen plenty of the Big Bore 94 angel eject 307s for very cheap .They were around $300 not bad.I want a 375 winchester in Angle Eject.Can you buy a 375 winchester barrel for $85 from Winchester .The question after you get the barrel how hard is to to switch from 307 winchester to 375 winchester.If I could find 375 big bore angle eject it would solve everything.I have only seen one.

As far as I know, it would be no problem to do this. You realize, of course, that you, if you are capable, or a gunsmith will have to "fit" the barrel to the receiver.. and then check/adjust the headspace. This is not a difficult thing to do, especially if you have access to a lathe. I am in the process of refinishing my BigBore in 375.... I can't wait to get it finished, and back out in the field (or the range)

Yeh! Me too! I believe I've read (though I don't know for sure it's a fact) that the .307 Winchester AE sold even less well than the .356 Winchester AE. At least I have seen several of the .356's in NRA ANIB condition and bought one, though sure as heck not for $300. (More like $475 including shipping.) I have never even seen a .307 M94 AE in any condition, at a gun show or anywhere else.
