The Mauser actions are good, but high accuracy fans usually prefer the Rem 700 due to the faster firing time (we're talking 50 ms difference here, you need to be VERY good to notice). The problem with your spare barrel is, you have no way to test accuracy before spending the money of having it installed. There's Walther and Shilen barrels, and there's $100 a pop barrels.

As I get older I find hitting a mini ram at 200 yards with the 22 oddly more satisfying.
