I did the same. Sold a bunch of rifles I rarely shot and consolidated the money on one awesome rifle I love to shoot. I am able to swap barrels on it once or twice a year if needed.I actually came out very well on the 25-06 and .17 HMR, didn’t lose a dime on either. It was more than just barrels, it was stocks and streamlining as well.
The PRC I’m selling is a Bergara Premier Mountain 2.0, and I’m for sure going to get hosed on it, but once again it isn’t just the barrel. The stock doesn’t fit me well, and the amount I’d recoup selling the stock and barrel isn’t worth it. I’ll take the loss, I have a spare Tikka to build the PRC on and a 700 SA to build the 6 CM on, so selling the Bergara to fund one of those doesn’t bother me.
I have picked up a couple other rifles, but built them for a specific purpose where there is no overlap with the awesome rifle.
Having rifles in the safe that never get shot and take up space are a waste to me. They aren’t investments to me.
