Old win mod. 670 in 243

[brahman]

Iw was going through a safe of mine and found this in the back forgot i even had it barrel is rooted just wondering if its worth makeing something out of it or just rebarrel it and use it as the knock about rifle on the polaris ranger

If you think its worth biulding something with it whats your surguestions

[Seddo]

Nothing wont with them, i've done heaps of builds on them. There isn't a high range of parts but more than enough to get by.

Here's a couple of pics.....

Its just sittn in the cabnet it just got me thinking thats all would you just keep it as a 243 or could you change the cal. and what would it cost to do roughly worst case

[brahman]

Say new stock thumb hole barrel over haul bolt trigger thw works

[Seddo]

There is no real figure as if depends on why you want. None of those builds have been done since the dollar dropped so I can't really help.

Barrels - TSE will fit a CM barrel for under $600
Triggers - you can touch up the original or add a timneybor jewell.
Stocks - McMillan, manners, HS Prec or Boyd's as a cheap option

It depend what you want done to it. I'm not a gunsmith so there isn't anything hands on I can do but I'm happy to point you in the right direction.

what sort of build did you have in mind?

Remember you can convert it to a long action calibre if you like. I've converted a few 243's to 6.5x284, 25-06AI, 280AI, you just remove the block in the mag box, modify the bolt release and get a longer follower.

[Seddo]

Keep in mind your pushing to get anything out of McMillan this side of Christmas. They are down to quoting 5 months but that's not leaving any room.

20x47 will work, a 20BR will as well but you will have to get a sako extractor fitted to extract the shorter case.

260 or 6.5 Creedmoor are you best options, i have them both on M70's, as the small primer and possible loose firing pin fit wont be any good for a 6.5x47.

B&C do a hunting stock but its been a while since i have looked at them so i cant say for sure. You can do a BR but you have to get a sako extractor fitted if you want it to throw cases otherwise they will fall off the factory extractor. I've never played with a dasher but i would assume you will still need a sako extractor as the case length is still the same.

I wish i still owned all of them but thats life, you cant have everything.
