I got really close to doing it.
300wby with a barrel that had unfortunately started pitting. I had found a smith, and a barrel.
I really liked the idea of longer bullets and more available ammo and brass.
I was just hung up on finding a more modern stock for the action before I sent the barrel in for the action work.
Ended up trading it plus cash for a 223 tikka.
Turns out I’ve burned more powder and taken more game with that tikka, than I ever did with the wby.
I feel like I made the right decision.
