Just wanted to run an idea past those more experienced than me. I fancy a project rifle, something I can buy for a reasonable price but has potential to be tinkered with for fun.
I was considering a Tikka Super Varmint in either 7mm Rem Mag or 6.5 PRC. The idea being it could perhaps later be rebarrelled to 7mm SAUM, a chassis added etc. I'm thinking of casual target shooting up to 1 mile that didn't break the bank. Could a 7mm Rem Mag run 180gr VLD Berger's?
Any obvious problems with this idea?
