It already sports a Nielsen adapter, and if you read the initial post, part of the question was 30 cal, I'd like to keep the existing barrel :)

When you say "rebating the rim" do you mean opening up the bolt face diameter ?

If so, nope, not enough meat left on the Omark bolt to go any larger than .470.

Been watching some of the 30-06 stuff by 4AW over in Aus.

He just took a bog standard 06, and reamed the neck quite a bit forward to use 230 Bergers. Pushing them at around 2640 fps out of a 26...

:nose bleed:

The only problem with that would be my 1:10 30 cal barrel .... :D

More shagging around forming brass, and I suspect Gibbs dies would be a lot harder to source than 06AI ?

Haha John, this particular Omark was used for FTR, so it's been scoped since I had it.

It lives in a laminate, vertical grip stock that is well suited to ELR.

I've got a PRS rifle in 6.5 Creed....

Not shooting FTR anymore, so the Omark has become a bit of a safe queen.

Thinking about options for turning it into something a bit more suited to occasional ELR shoots.

Been talking to gundoc...
