[QUOTE="El Matavenados, post: 1386541, member: 89192"] I'm not afraid to mount a barrel on a Savage/Stevens, LOL! With a few wrenches and gauges, it's pretty simple (at least, the concepts are simple). It's chambering and threading and muzzle threading that I can't do. Now, if I had a suitable lathe, tooling, 3-phase power, and room in the garage, I would LOVE to learn to chamber my own barrels! Maybe someday. With this build, I don't intend to swap barrels, so I'll eliminate one extra component from the system (barrel nut). If the barrel nut is not a precision component, and it's being used to mate a precision barrel to a precision lug and trued action, then eliminating it seems like a good idea. Thanks for the encouraging words, guys! I'll update as the project progresses. [/QUOTE]
