[QUOTE="shortgrass, post: 1377041, member: 24284"] just country, you may know about headspacing the Ackley Improved chambers, but many who come to these forums do not! Factory barrels, no matter whos' stamp is on them, are usually not worth the time or money to re-chamber to anything. Especially a 25yr. old factory barrel! Posts that are not specific, like "all ya' gotta' do is run a Ackley reamer in to make it a AI", without specifying that the headspace is different only ad to the confusion. Extend the 'life' of a factory barrel? The best way to "extend the life" is to add it to the scrap so it eventually ends up recycled into something useful. [/QUOTE]
