had a Remmy Model 30 . it was a Rem 35 caliber. someone punched out the chamber to 35 Whelen. They put is in a funcky Bishop syle stock. it did look kind of cool though. shot well. I just thought the action was too heavy for a 35 W so I sold it to a guy that was going to make something big out of like 458 Lott, 404 Jeff, 416 Rigby. Sold it for $350 so basically he was just buying the action. when I priced it at $350 I had a bunch of guys wanting it. I would buy the gun and if you do not like or want you can always sell the action for what you have into it.
