My first gun I ever bought was an Argentine Mauser 1891 in 7.65x53 and I have been infatuated with that caliber ever since. I was thinking of building a modern firearm in that chambering. The idea came to me after doing some research into reloading the caliber by resizing 30.06 brass. My brain got to thinking (not always a good thing) that the bolt face of 30.06 and 7.65x53 must be almost identical. So, if I get a CZ550 and have it re barreled into for .311 then I might be able to sling a near obsolete piece of metal out of a very modern firearm... is this a workable idea?
Need advice. Thanks in advance.
