I'm getting that sick feeling ...
09/07/11 12:02 AM

(Also posted at AR)
Reading a number of threads here and at AR this morning has caused a hare-brained scheme to emerge from the depths of my sick mind.
The thread on reboring vs. rebarreling made me realize that a Ruger No. 1 with quarter rib and banded front sight is the perfect candidate for a rebore.
And what better candidate for this classic "Farqish" design than a .333 Jeffery Flanged?
Biggest obstacle is finding a reboring shop that can cut a .333 barrel. Of course, .338 is an absolute cinch. So the project then becomes a .333/.338 Jeffery wildcat.
Why go to all this trouble?
Romance! Passion! Coolness factor!
I'd be the only guy on my block with such a rifle, and could stuff all available .338 bullets into that wonderfully stout little case, including the big 300-grainers that made the Jeffery's reputation.
I know, I'm a sick puppy.
