Can you rebarrel a WSSM action?

[OnTheX]

This may be a stupid question, but can a Model 70 WSSM action be re-barreled to anything other than a WSSM cartridge?

Anything with the same bolt face and right cartridge length to fit in the action.

Any of the short action mag cartridges will work. However, due to the action and magazine being a Mdl70 short action, you will be limited in performance on the 6.5 PRC, WSMs or SAUMs due to having to seat the bullet so deep.

You could check out the 6, 6.5, or 7 Sherman Short (SS) or Short Tactical (SST).
