hi all,
after much thought and head banging ive sent my trusty 25/06 t3 in for a rebarrel job. it wasnt shot out but its certainly seen some action and to be honest on range day i have cooked it a little more than i should the odd time.
the caliber ive decided to go to is 6.5x47L as after trawling the internet and load manuals along with talking to some guy that shoot it, it just seems right for me. ive always found the 25 a nice rifle to shoot and stuff doest seem to run on "roe is my staple diet" when they get a tap from it but i feel a change was on the cards " just because i can" so in its gone for the work.
nows the itchy bit haha ive ordered it with an 18in barrel or there abouts as may have to go 18.5 to avoid stock mods. "does anyone on here have experience of this caliber in short lengths please so i can be reasured that ive made the right choice" the smith thats doing the work is very confident it will be ok, may get a little more flash than normal but other than that no bother
anyone able to offer me a noo noo blanket would be much appreciated
kind regards
jimmy
