I have a Tikka Master Sporter Model 595 in 308 caliber that I would like to rebarrel to a 6BR. I would appreciate any advice on performing this job - I understand the 308 bolt face will work with the 6BR cartridge and I realize the magazine will not work with the 6BR (I load single shot anyway when target shooting so no big deal)..

Thanks
Jim

James,
The 308 and 6BR are both .473. I have a 595 in .223 that I put a heavy varmint barrel on. The action threads on mine were excellent, and with the medium length cartridges on the Tikka you get a long barrel tenon for extra support.
