I'll check with Douglas. I'd rather not rebore, as it would be nice to be able to return the rifle to as bought condition, and swapping barrels on a M70 is mighty easy with that integral recoil lug.
I agree that there's nothing wrong with the 7mm-08, but I've got a Ti in that chambering, as well as 700 based builds in 7 rsausm, adn .280 AI., but I've got nothing bigger. I spent a bit of time in bear camp this spring, and came away with a new appreciation for bigger diameter bullets at moderate velocity.
