How much do you bore out a 30-30- rifle to change it to a 44-40?

Mathematically speaking, you bore it from being 0.30\ninches to 0.44 inches.\n\nI'm not very knowledgable about rifles, but I would\nthink that you'd face some problems in making he\naction, shell ejector, etc all work with the different\nsized shells.

I have 3 a 91/30, M-44, m38.  The price of $106.00 is a little high and if you have to add S&H + transfer the you could get soaked. Prices for the 91/30 start at $79.00 and go up from there. When buying a MN there are a lot of things to take into account. Year, receiver, stock, if it has a drilled receiver and condition just to name a few.  So is $106 a good price, yes and no. Are you going to have to add $15 shipping and $25 transfer? I will include some links that will help you understand.  Now for the ammo.  The days of cheep ammo are long gone. 7.62x39 use to cost me $1.50 a 20 now it is up to $5.00 a 20 7.62 was $2.00 a box now it can be as high as $12.00 a box.  http://world.guns.ru/rifle/rfl03-e.htm  http://www.jgsales.com/index.php/c/c-r-guns/cPath/290?osCsid=9259be2439d9897add201e57cba9cfe2  http://www.interordnance.com/index.shtml\n\nSnip: On top of that, I'm worried the corrosive primers will damage the barrel if I don't treat it specially.\nAll you need to do is clean your rifle after you shoot it.  I have a case {It is a ladies makeup case.} that I take to the range and it has every thing I need to take care of my guns.  Windex works very well for cleaning after shooting corrosive ammo .  The links have all of the info you need if you just read the. There is one Tripod site that will not link so you will have to copy and past the url to a word doc to go to the web site.  Corrosive ammo is not a problem if you clean your rifle after you shoot it and I am not saying the next day I am say before you go home from the range .

Bound's hubby here:\n\nMany different people have different views on "how to break-in a rifle". There are some that suggest that after you shoot 2 or 3 shots through the barrel, that you thoroughly clean the barrel, and keep repeating this process for 200 or 300 shots. Personally, this is not how I do it. \n\nI know that every rifle (or pistol) is proof-fired with one round and sometimes with a full clip or magazine ... and not usually cleaned before it leaves the factory. What I do is to thoroughly clean the arm of cosmoline, then I clean all of the minute parts. When I clean the barrel, I do not use a cleaning kit take down cleaning rod, I use a one piece vinyl coated cleaning rod. (Take down rods can collect grit between the sections which will mar the rifling). \n\nI then take the rifle out and start shooting, maybe a box or two to settle the action and to zero the rifle. For me, my range is not close to my home, so I like to maximize my range time! I have found no adverse effects to barrel life with the way I care for my barrels!\n\nGood luck!

Much of this depends on what sport you plan on playing.\n\nRunning a 40 in the 4.5 or under range will get the attention of many a scout, recruiter, or college.

No.......308 winchester and 30.06 are "7.62mm" and 6.5 X55 is "6.5mm" .............Explosive results will occur.

I use a .243 myself.  It's light and there's not much recoil, but travels well and will put one down.

It depends on how much damage you want to do to the meat (not the animal) and how accurate you are.  A smaller, faster bullet, such as the 30-06, conveys a lot of hydrostatic shock that ruins some of the meat.  If you do your own reloading, and experiment with your reloads, then a 30-06 will work for you.\n\nA larger, slower bullet, such as the .308, makes a larger exit wound, but since the bullet is traveling slower, there is not as much ruined meat.\n\nI use an 8mm (8x57 IRS) for my hunting.  I am currently hunting in Germany where I regularly shoot Roe Deer and wild boar.  I will stack that caliber up against anything out there, and will use it next year on my elk hunt in CO.

That is the simplest form.  you can change it to 47/8, but that is less acceptable.

Wolf sells surplus 223 rds but I would recommend against them. I used them in my bushmaster and it was freaking hard to clean. Also, the gun started jamming after about 40 rounds. They have a lacquer coating on them that gets hot and gooey in the barrel.

im stuck on my ole' 67 remington 1100 semi-auto 12 with modified choke, all originall parts all i have had to do is clean it. they still make it today, but with some changes. ribbed barrell, extra ball sight halfway down the barrel, and now comes with 3" chamber, and screw-in chokes. but ill never have one cause i think mine is going to out-live me

Go with an Armor lite AR 50. Extremely accurate. Weigh about 45 lbs.The compensator makes it feel like your shooting a 270 so you wont kill your arm. Has a detachable box magazine. Very nice to shoot.

Cabelas stores have obsolete ammo.  I think 351's are around $30 a box.  I've fired some made by winchester, but I think they have been discontinued now.

This will be simple for You. Break the Gun Down. Make sure You put each set of Parts in a Different area so You wont get them Mixed up. Once you have the Firing Mechanism out put the New Pin inside the spring. Clean and oil the parts with WD-40 and use this sparingly. You only want a thin coat of oil on the Workings. assemble and oil the outside of the Rifle. I'm home on weekends and will walk You through this as Need Be. I own one Myself.

I think they quit making the 28 a year or so ago, again. It's been on and off. They always sold for more than the 12 or 20. Book price shows the 28 or .410 as $27 more than a comparable 12, 16, or 20 ga.  I just picked up a new 870 Express 12 ga. 3" magnum with laminated stock at Dick's Sporting Goods for $190.00, total w/tax after $30 rebate from Remington and $25 Dick's gift card.

Bound's hubby here:\n\nIf I remember correctly, the Winchester Model 70 hunting guns require a degree of up pressure toward the tip of the forearm, while the "OLD" Model 70T target guns had free floated barrels. The Model 70, nicknamed the "Rifleman's Rifle" was Winchester's Mercedes Benz of rifles, and it is doubtful they would have let a sour shooter leave New Haven!\n\nI would suggest the following:\n* Check scope bases for tightness (remember, be liberal with the "locktite" or iodine!)\n* Check to make certain the scope rings are tight on the scope bases.\n* Bore sight the rifle for 100 yards - NOTE: I just got a Model 70 in .270 ... I think it may be a featherweight synthetic or a "shadow", and I was not happy with the way it bore sighted ... the stud would not stay in place in the bore!\n* After bore sighting, fire a three shot group at the target, with the target set 25 yards from the rifle ... it should print very close to "dead-on" ... then go for 100 yards.\n* When zeroing the rifle, do so with a good sling, and perhaps a rest ... do not let the rest touch the barrel, only the fore-arm!\n* If this does not work, call the good people at Browning who are providing customer support for the defunct Winchester line ... they will probably ask him to ship it to their facility at Arnold, Mo. for repair. \n\nGood luck!
