I'll confess upfront that I'm a nicky-new guy so go easy on me with the answers to this question.
I really like the look and feel of the Mosin-Nagant, but since I don't have the time, space or inclination to do my own reloads, the ammo is a bit of a concern. I do own a really nice Remington 7 in 308 and have a nice stockpile of various loads. So the question is, can I re-barrel (that is if you can purchase a 308 barrel) a Mosin and convert it to fire 7.62x51 ? Perhaps this would require so much effort that it is not practical, but I do not have sufficient knowledge to make the call.
Thanks.
