What sort of action work would it take to get a 22-250 Parker hale 98 to feed the 318.

obviously I’d get a 30-06 sized floor plate and follower.
 
In my opinion would have to compare the shape of the action feed rails & mag box to a 30/06 version, to the best of my knowledge a 243 is the same as a 30/06, but the mag box has a spacer in it that can be removed, i do not know about a 22/250 aslo the bolt stop ejector blade will need to be from a 270 win or 30/06 i think its lest of a hassle to find a 30/06 or 270 to start with. I have built a 318 WR from a 30/06 Parker Hale with just a bbl change.

You will need a 30-'06 or similar magazine box and possible do some work on that as well. The bolt face will / may need a bit of work as well. Assume you are re-barreling and not reboring.

I have been using a "Personal Property" rider on my State Farm homeowner's policy to cover guns when I travel with them.
I have several firearms, but only one is worth over $20K (A Heym double rifle).
Very interested.
Would firearms be covered for damage, as well as, complete loss?
I'll can let the State Farm rider cover my watches...

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
