Just bought one off of the Accurate shooter sight Question will short action cartridges 22-250 Etc. work In a long action? Or should I re-barrel it with a 30-06 type case such as 6.5-06 will a 6MM work in the long action? Thanks Lou

Yes short action cartridges will feed through a long action. Many people build on long actions to get the extra room for long bullets. The 6 MM Remington is a great cartridge for building into a long action especially if you are going to shoot the heavy 6 mm bullets.

Thanks Hank The rifle has a bedded Richardson stock and a standard Remington 30-06 sporter barrel If I were it get a brux barrel installed what contour would I need I imagine the barrel channel can be opened some what I would want IS a 26" barrel or would a Krieger barrel be a better choice? Also to shoot heavier bullets a 1-8 twist be alright
