[QUOTE="shortgrass, post: 1091179, member: 24284"] You'll need to find someone local so the adapter can be matched to the barrel threads properly. If you can't find a local to do the work, you'll have to plan on shipping the entire rifle(s). Stuff like this isn't just a simple as some would like you to believe. The 'bore' of the adapter(s) needs to be parallel to the barrel bore. They only way to insure that is to machine the 'bore' of the adapter while attached to the barrel (provided the threading on the barrel muzzle is parallel to the barrel bore to begin with). The same applies to those 5/8-24 threads, they need to be parallel to the bore. I just finished a couple. Went from 9/16-32 to 5/8-24. It ain't "drop-in"! [/QUOTE]
