[QUOTE="shortgrass, post: 1879954, member: 24284"] By the time you have the neck and throat 'fixed' for the new chambering, because your barrel (inside) is bigger, and pay to have the outside converted to use the 'nut', you have just defeated your objective of saving $$$$$. The headspace should be the same as it was if you stay within the same family of cartridges provided the same recoil lug is used. You are thinking too hard about this! Go from .270 to .338/06 and all that ls needed is a reamer to cut the neck and throat to .338 , install the barrel using the same recoil lug, and checking the headspace with gauges. [/QUOTE]
