I just did it. Just picked it up from my rifle builder a couple of days ago. I'll be necking up some 325 WSM brass and developing loads. I took a Win model 70 stainless classic in 270 WSM and rebarreled it.

Specs are M70 stainless classic action
Lilja stainless modified Winchester contour barrel in 12 twist.
Put it in a factory featherweight super grade stock.
Topping it off with a silver Leupold 4.5-14x40 VX3 in dual dove tails.

I have a few finishing touches to do to it yet, but I should be shooting it soon. I'll post my results when I do because it was difficult to get solid info. Some guys gave me solid advice but what they were shooting wasn't exactly what I want to try so, it will be tricky. I did a bunch of research on here and other forums so in the mean time I'll do some digging and post links to my threads so you can see what info I have.

What are your plans so far??

I sure could go for some $2.50/gal gas and a mean tweet!
