I traded for a fairly nice Remington in 22-250. My plan was to rebarrel it in 243Win as another learning project, why ruin a new receiver if it fails, but now I find out they have 3 action lengths on the 788, short short (44 Mag length), medium short (223 and 22-250) and long short (243/308).
Is it merely a issue of new bottom metal and milling the ejection port to convert the 22-250 action to handle 243Win? The receiver length appears to be the same for both 'lengths'.
