I have a 223 bolt action rifle that I would like to get the chamber converted to 5.56 mm. Before anyone replies, I fully understand the differences between the 2. However, most of the "gunsmiths" that I have talked to do not fully understand the difference. The few that understand do not have the proper chamber reamers to do the job. I do not want a hack job as I do not want to mess up a good bolt action rifle (Interarms Mini-Mauser Mark X). All I want to be able to do is shoot all of my 5.56 ammo interchangeably between this rifle and my AR's. For some 5.56 ammo, I get pierced primers when firing out of this 223.
Do any of our board gunsmiths have the equipment and understanding do this work?
I am in NW Louisiana. Closer is always better , but I travel to the BR/NOLA area fairly frequently.
Thanks
