Default Overbore...

Yes, I am familiar with overbore cartridges as well as wildcats...I shoot a 20-250 Ackley now as well as virtually all the Wby Mag cartridges. I have a 224 Wby mag in a 60's varmintmaster...I definitely don't want to be shooting it too much, way to nice of rifle, the wood is amazing.

A .473 boltface on 308 based calibers is a little too big to start with, I was always under the understanding that opening up a 223 is the way to go, just wondering if anyone on the board had any experience doing it on a Mark V, 6 lug action.

The vanguard action (Howa) is commonly what people use for this in the Weatherby crowd...I'd like mine to be based of the American made action....
