[QUOTE="kai, post: 1446114, member: 98994"] MagnumManiac... thanks for sharing your comments. The custom Nucleus action that I will be using will be built on new and expensive machinery that should be very precise. It sounds like you have a system well sorted out for your switch barrel guns. Since this will be my first switch barrel gun I'd like to ask, how repeatable is the zero when removing and reinstalling the same barrel? I like your idea of simply spinning on a barrel by hand without needing tools. I'm planning on using the Barloc device by the maker of the Nucleus action to allow the user to screw the barrel in by hand to the witness mark, then use the Barloc "clamp" to torque the barrel's threads to the receiver's threads. I understand that an idiot proof system with multiple, repeatable zeros on a single scope may not be attainable using conventional methods. I'm developing an unconventional method that would enable the user to establish and use a multitude of zeros on a single scope and not loose the original (primary) zero. This would be useful for people who would like to shoot different loads in the same barrel or even different barrels in the same gun. My solution would cost some money to develop and I'm currently trying to figure out if would have enough value to other shooters to justify the investment. [/QUOTE]
