[QUOTE="kiwikid, post: 1811416, member: 56094"] What you have suggested is fairly common in some of the European countries where the number of rifles they are allowed is restricted. By having one action and say a standard and a magnum bolt it is possible to have several different cartridges and calibres. Blazer, Sauer plus Schultz and Larsen offer switch barrel rifles. The below photos are a Schultz and Larsen cut rifled barrel machined to fit a 6 lug Sauer 202 action. This one is 6.5x55 Swede but I have 223, 22-250, 25-06 and 6.5-284 barrels as well The actions are steel and the barrel is held into the receiver by either 2 or 3 cross bolts normally tightened to between 62 and 70 inch lbs. If I remove the barrel and then reinstall it I find that the POI usually changes only .5 MOA.
