Baikal as a base for a project rifle?
      07/09/16 08:30 AM

Hello everyone.

Like a lot of people I just don't have the money to purchase a new double rifle. But I have been seeing a few of the baikal sxs 45/70 and 3006 for sale in Aus at the moment.
Neither caliber appeals to me and my dream has always been to have a double in 303.

So my question is has anyone tried to convert the baikal to 303? Or any other caliber?
How much work will it involve?
What version would be the better to start with 3006 or 45/70?
Does anyone make a nicer stock for the Baikal?
Who would be the best gunsmith in Aus to talk to about this project?

Alternatively Is anyone able to recommend a sxs shotgun that could/would be a better base to start this 303 double project that won't break the budget?

Papa.
