Yeah, I just bought a Savage .375 H&H for much less money than it would take to convert the Mannlicher... and it is more a curiosity than a serious big game rifle. I'll leave it as an 8mm and use it for deer hunting and the target range. It was the Mannlicher action that had me intrigued. Even slapping on a barrel w sights, restocking and tuning the feed would be cost prohibitive.
