[QUOTE="kiwikid, post: 1812270, member: 56094"] Over the years I have realized that there are certain members on this site whose posts are well worth reading, J E Custom is one such member. The only switch barrel rifle that I know of that would be seen at competitions in Europe would be the Schultz and Larsen Tactical. J E is correct in saying that the cartridge choice is limited and you will never find any of these rifles chambered for any wildcat or AI cartridges other than perhaps a 280 AI. Once the barrel is machined it can't be altered. Other than bedding the action there really isn't anything that can be done if the rifle doesn't shoot well but luckily all 10 of these rifle I have here will shoot sub .5" groups at 100m. Other than that your only option is replace the barrel which takes about 5 minutes once you get one. At this stage I can't see anything other than threaded barrels into solid receivers dominating competition shooting events. This is a good thing as it assures us of having first class gunsmiths such as J E Custom among us. For anyone wanting to see more about the S&L rifles I have added a link. Enjoy.
