Re: Rebarrel a Savage 99C to 338 Federal

Its definitely a Kuharsky mount probably made for B+L I am guessing but dont know much about these rifles except what I have read. I read how much these setups cost back in the day and very expensive.

Re: Rebarrel a Savage 99C to 338 Federal

I am just about finished with a M96 Mauser in 6.5x55 swede so I have 6.5mm covered. I was going to go the custom build route, but I found a M96 already D+T with a bent bolt with rings in a crappy sporter stock with a cheap scope for a reasonable price so went that route. Putting it in a Boyds stock,...

Re: Rebarrel a Savage 99C to 338 Federal

I talked to him today and he said no problem and it would take about a week. Very nice guy, but this is a new rifle to me I just picked up today and its so nice I am very hesitant about reboring the barrel. I told him I better send it now before I shoot it, because if I do I probably wont go through...

Rebarrel a Savage 99C to 338 Federal

Exactly what does it take to rebarrel a 99C in 308 to 338 fed ? Cost and who can do the work time etc.

In a web search I saw the mention of 99 prefit barrels, but I can find none now.

If its not that much more, I would prefer to rebarrel it opposed to rebore.

Any body ever change a barrel on a Browning BLR ??

Any body ever change a barrel on a Browning BLR ?? Or have one changed by a gunsmith. We have one in 243. Just a regular BLR with the pistol grip maybe about 10 years old that nobody ever uses and I found 7mm-08 and 308 NOS factory barrels for $125 so thinking about a Caliber Swap. I am sure it take...
