You have a beautiful rifle..enjoy it , you are fortunate to possess such a caliber..like the 8x68 , it really is a caliber I want to build myself...but after all the opinions and advice from the members I am going to wait for a magnum action. My other option is to purchase a .300 H&H Magnum in a good condition form a friend of mine...he is willing to sell this rifle to me at an excellent price , remove the .300 barrel and insert a 8x68S Walter barrel...I am sure the 300 H&H Magnum action will be suitable for me to achieve the required OTL ...
