[QUOTE="geargrinder, post: 580549, member: 6705"] The pre-67's had barrel nuts. But it sounds like you don't have a pre. I just wanted to be sure. Starting with a pre-67' costs a bunch more. The Wheeler action wrench and Wheeler nut wrench from Midway is the cheapest way to get into barrel swapping. They also have barrel swap kits that have the barrel, nut wrench, and gauges. If you don't have to change the bolt head. It is as simple as breaking the nut loose. Unscrewing the barrel. Inserting the no-go gauge. Screwing the new barrel on. Tighten the nut. Check with go-gauge. Go shoot. [/QUOTE]
