Rifle is currently a .264WM and needs to be a .458 Lott. Who has a reasonable price on this sort of work and can also modify the rails to feed?

CDNN still has rifles? Hmm... I like this idea.

However I have to shitcan the barrel either way, in favor of an extremely heavy sporter barrel to get a loaded weight of 11 pounds without scope in 18" flavor.

I will call CDNN soon.

Well my 2cents if I was going to go with a 18" barrel I'd leave it 458wmag cut the barrel off move the sight and add lead to the stock maybe a recoil reducer if I wasn't happy with the weight. Don't know about cdnn but they are on gunbroker for around $580 buynow.


As usual just my $.02

A CM barrel is not to my liking, especially one so light, and 1900 fps does not make me feel warm fuzzies.

You lost me there. But that is easy to do. Like I said my 2 cents.

I need a rifle that is heavy despite the short barrel and doesn't mind being leaned up in the corner of the cabin without cleaning whether it's been rained on or not.
