OK, so I have a 22-250 remmington BDL and I'm toying with the idea of re-barreling it and putting a laminate stock on it. I know I have to stay with short action cartridges. But what are the ones that won't require altering the bolt face? Ovbiously the 250 savage. 308? If that's a yes then there's all of its lil kids. The 243, 7mm-08 the new 338 federal and is there already a wildcat that would be 6.5-08?

Thank you RR and #40fan! I knew I couldn't have been the first to think of it...its just too good and too easy to have not already been in existance. #40fan, that list is exactly what I am looking for, thank you.
