They are amazing rifles. My 30-06 FC is currently being rebarrel/chambered to a 35 whelen but I have 3 other FC chamberings as well. All as accurate as the other and carry great
They only came in factory 24” barrel in that caliber unless it’s been cut/recrowned by a smith. Just wanted to put that out there so someone doesn’t grab it thinking it’s 21” like ad says
Look at the weatherby mark v Camilla ultra light. It’s light and already threaded. It’s got a higher cheek swell, slightly shorter lop, and slightly thinner it’s made for women and youth shooter. It is a 1:10 twist but you could always shoot it never know the twist and barrel might like what...
Glenn. Melvins old head machinist bought up his tools/shop/etc to keep up maintaining CLR/Forbes/ULA/NULA. Nice guy for sure he’s bout to do a rebarrel/chamber for me on one
Correct Wilson went their own way. Not fully bedded, uses ag composite stock instead of Melvin’s design, and uses their own in house barrel instead of a Douglas.
