i was told i could i could convert my 338 mag up to a .50bmg with a barrell change bolt change, can this be done? i want to convert it to something large for extreme long range shooting, it was made by howa, i all ready have a savage 300 win mag.
If it's been done, I'd like to see it, but I sure wouldn't trust it. Even if it was possible, nobody would want to shoot it because the recoil would be brutal on such a lightweight.ammo guide interactive, rechambering guide said it was possable,i dont know. they would know better than me.
I just checked this out and I don't think you entered the parameters correctly. If I check off the last choice for each question, it'll give me a "Yes" answer for this conversion, but in reality, the action length won't support this conversion. I wouldn't trust this as a guide because it dosen't ask any specific questions as to exactly what rifle action you are starting with.
