    Apart from the "I did that" factor, by the time you set yourself up and get everything sorted out and get yourself into the pattern of thinking ahead about when you're hunting and when you are going to get everything organised ahead of time - it's basically just going to cost about the same as having two rifles. One in .308 and the other in 6.5...

    Forgive me for being that guy, but the other issue is the potential for wear and tear in the barrel tenon threads taking barrels on and off (small risk but still) and also the stuff around removing the scope and bases every time as if you are using screw-on bases rather than clamp on usually the front base screws project into the barrel tenon area and interfere with the barrel threads. I prefer the screw-on style rather than clamp on, as I've had the clamp on type come loose and slip about.
