[QUOTE="AZShooter, post: 904486, member: 5219"] If you can find a new Rem takeoff in another short action chambering there is a possibility that the barrel will be headspaced properly. I have pulled used Rem barrels and installed new Rem takeoffs that headspaced perfectly with no alterations. Latest switches were in 7 Rem mag and 25-06. There are many 7-08 takeoffs out there and it would be a perfect switch for your rig. I have a barrel vise and the necessary go/no go gauges when I do this. If you don't have the ability to do it yourself your gunsmith can remove and install the barrels and check the headspace. You might just get lucky! [/QUOTE]
