The 6mm is my wifes rifle. I'm not messing with it. No sir!
I was just saying that the 788 Rem in general I thought would be a good gun to wildcat to a larger caliber. The rails/case shoulder stops however, are a problem I had overlooked.
I do my best never to sell or trade in a gun. I always try to scrounge the funds from somewhere. I had a old chevy(85) ,1ton, 4wheel drive PU that I had put 450,000 on. I was just going to park it, but some one offered me enough to get my 375 Blackhawk converted to 480 Ruger by Gary Reeder. So I'll sell a truck to convert a gun, but I don't like to trade guns off.
I do have a Ruger SS P85MK11 9mm I might get rid of though and the local gun shop has a nice Ruger 77, in 300 Win mag, for $360 that I wouldn't mind having. But then I also want to convert my mauser98 to 475x2.5 belted mag and I want a new 480R lever gun. And I also need a better concealed carry revolver.
Tried to pawn off the pistol (it is very nice I think) on my boys, but they turn their noses up at Rugers. Ruger is too low grade for their tastes, I guess. Yuppies. (I didn't raise them that way.)
