It's been a struggle! Some years ago, I picked up an Interarms Mark X in 30-06 with the intention of rebarrling to a .270 Win. Mechanically, the rifle is rock solid, and I suppose if I wanted yet another 30-06, I'd just clean her up. The bluing has worn through the years, a type of wear commonly seen on saddle scabbards. Anyhow, ever since the 7mm Backcountry was released, good data on it started seeping into the Inter-regions. More than once, I have had the McGowen Percussion Barrels website open and the form filled out to send this Interarms Mark X to be rebarreled in 7mm BC, yet, I haven't pulled the trigger... Yet... It's been a struggle.. I want it; I mean who wouldn't 20" barrel - 3150 FPS - 168 LRX / 170 Ascent - ahhh the possibilities. But without reloading dies, I stall. - IF- and -When- dies for this hit the market, it would be the tipping point for sure, maybe even a firm assurance the dies are coming would do it. The temptation is real, my friends... Real as it gets...
