On its face, though, though, the answer seems to be ‘yes’ since 760/7600s have been re-bored up to .338 and .358 fairly often. I simply don’t know if JES does .264 as it’s not one I ever considered.

The government plans these shootings by targeting kids from kindergarten that the government thinks they can control with drugs until the appropriate time--DerbyDude Whatever.

I had a Ssavage 99F rebored from 243 WIN to 260 REM some years back and it has worked great.. The bore diameter of the larger cartride just needs to be large enough to remove all of the rifling. Rifling is typically around 0.004" deep, so the ROT is that you need at least 0.008" to work with. Good luck with your project!
