[QUOTE="25WSM, post: 1892767, member: 38048"] Matchbook you said you are a machinist. Making an action wrench and a barrel vise are pretty basic. And if you go the barrel nut system they are simple. Not that shouldered barrels aren't simple because they are. You being a machinist can measure your action and give those specs to get your headspace proper. It's just a few measurements they will use to make your chamber the proper depth. Shouldered barrels are even easier than a nut barrel. Lube it up screw it down and snug it up. Done. Once the company has your action measurement they can make you more barrels that will fit. You probably have scrape laying around your shop to make the tools. Shep [/QUOTE]
