To give you a little background - I have an offer to buy a Blaser LRS-2 in 338Lapua, complete build in a case for less than the scope sitting on top of it is worth. If I do, however, I realize I won´t be able to feed it long term - here in EU, even reloading for that caliber is expensive and factory ammo sells for around 6-8 USD a round. Say the barrel has about half its life gone, so I´d be forced to get a new one anyway.
Now the question is: What other calibers could I go with on a rebuild? Any 30 magnums? I realize downgrading all the way to .308Win isn´t realistic, but having it in 300WM, that I could live with.
Is the rifle worth such a project? Thanks to all. Lukas
