I've currently got a Remington Model 7 SS in .308 w/20" barrel.
I've been considering swapping the .308 barrel for a 22" .260 Remington.
The .308 heats up very quickly, and starts to string after just a few rounds. Plus, with anything hot, it kicks like a mule.
I've got a Savage 10FP in .308 for target shooting, and have been considering adding a 25-06 or .260 for mule deer hunting.
So, should I rebarrel my Model 7 or sell it and buy a smaller bore gun?
