    Gunsmithing Recommended barrel for .260 build

    I've decided to build a .260Rem. on a 700 SA. On my previous builds I've used Shilen barrels and am happy with them. My question is what maker, barrel length and rate of twist for 140gr. bullets (probably Berger's) do you recommend and why? As for ROT I was thinking 8.75?

    Gunsmithing 1891 Mauser conversion

    Will the bolt face on a 1891 Argentine Mauser work for a conversion to a 6mmPPC (.220 Russian/7.62x39)? I was "thinking" it would. What about safety issues with pressure? I am wanting to build a 6PPC and since I've got a '91 that has been "sporterized", would like to use this action if possible.
