Truth is,I like big bore rifles,but I've got a 22lr budget. I already own a 22/250,223,22 mag,17hmr,2 22lr,3 12g shotguns,a 50cal muzzleloader,and this 308. I like the idea of casting my own bullets. I find it rare to shoot anymore than 100m when hunting animals. I like the idea of running a heavy pure lead slug at subsonic speeds,a soft varmint style "light" bullet at mid range for medium game,and a heavy solid for big animals. I already have the rifle and dies, shells and powder. So in my mind,if all I have to do is modify my dies,buy some projies,and get a new barrel to achieve something a bit unique to cover the larger end of the spectrum,well why not ?

here's the rifle in question topped with a leupold vari x lll 1.5-5x20. Just imagine it with a shorter barrel and express sights
