I have a Tikka 6.5 creedmore, I wanted a 6.5PRC but the deal on this rifle was to good to pass up. My question is what would it involve to make this rifle a PRC? Could the chamber just be redone? Or would it take a new barrel?
Bolt swap, magazine, feeding etc. Not sure if they could ream the barrel. Your “good deal” would end up costing more than a really good PRC and probably can’t be done.
Can be done but also need to change the bolt face to .550 or a new mag bolt and a magnum magazine. Might as well get a bolt stop to long action while you are at it.
Would be easier to go to 6.5-284 if you take advantage of the long tikka action anyway
