Ive had the pieces to get this rebarrelled into 6.5x55 but my smithy took ill and wont be working again, so figured Id put it all together with the original barrel and leave it with the original 30.06 til I can find a smithy again.

Re: My current rig

There's no shortage of great smiths here that can get you set up in 6.5x55.

I'd ditch that scope and mounts before you take it out and shoot it. All you'll do with it is chase your POI around trying to get it sighted in.

I wouldn't do business with a smith that had to troll internet forums for business any more than Id trust a cook at a restaurant that was empty at 7PM on a saturday night. I've done business with both and regretted it both times ;-)
