Giving a guy an estimate for some survey work and he said the magic words. "any interest in trading for a gun?"
It's a 7x57 Remington, believe a number 5.
I have nothing against the caliber, but my personal preference would be for something a little more BP conducive.
How hard would it be to rebarrel and modify the extractor to 45-70? I am assuming the action is strong enough if it was rolling smokeless 7mm to start.
Anything I should be on the look out for as far as problem areas?
