Yes it can. You will need a new bolt (PTG) and barrel. Probably change the magazine follower to 7.62x39. I had it done to a .223 and have no regrets. And because its a Remington 700 there are tons of after market things (Like a swing safety&Sako extractor) you can add to make it a rifle like none other on earth.
