    Yeah man. I believe the duleys use rem take off barrels. If I was going to all that trouble id spend the extra couple hundy on a reputable custom barrel.

    I had the same thoughts when I purchased my 284, but the reality of my hunting actually is that 500+ is a fuck of a long way. And while I've got grunt out to 800 odd I'd never dream of shooting an animal that far away. Reading wind at those distances is a real challenge.

    By all means if you want one go for it, but if your anything like me then the current rifle you have will do the job fine.
