[QUOTE="westcliffe01, post: 942888, member: 35183"] This is the best approach I have seen: [URL="http://switchbarrel.blogspot.com/"]The Switch Barrel[/URL] He uses an action wrench that goes inside the action rails and a hex wrench on the end of the barrel. By not having a barrel nut, there is no need to dismount the scope and rail and by wrenching on the end of the barrel one can leave the action in the stock provided the barrel free floating is "generous". Otherwise take the action out the stock, no big deal. He make much of the 2 different locating diameters on the barrel for getting a repeatable barrel install and he is probably right. So this is slightly like a mauser except that only 1 shoulder is used to headspace, but 2 are used to guide the barrel relative to the action.
