Build Rem 700 Titanium in .308?
I am interested in Remington's new 700 Titanium but it is only offered in 4 calibers: 260 Rem, 270 Win, 7mm-08 Rem & 30.06. I would like to buy one if I can rebarrel it to a 308.
My questions are:
If the 7mm-08 Rem cartridge is a necked down .308, can I use the original bolt? (Is the bolt face of the 7mm & 308 identical?) I want to use the original bolt as it is made out of Titanium.
Is the 7mm-08 Rem action a "short action"?
Any info is appreciated. Thanks
