[QUOTE="Ross1147, post: 1665497, member: 106919"] I bought a 783 in 308 a couple weeks ago to use as a donor action. It was my first barrel swap and it wasn’t bad at all. Gun is a little rough, not sure how good the factory barrel shot, I took it off before sending a round down it. If you do swap the barrel make sure you get the correct recoil lug alignment tool. I kept searching and Remington 700 tools kept popping up so I assumed they were the same. They are not the same and I had to modify the one I bought by drilling another hole in it and filing some of the edges off. I turned mine into a 6 Dasher. No feeding or extracting issues. [/QUOTE]
