[QUOTE="arch408, post: 2121729, member: 59036"] FWI, I have swapped “take off” barrels into factory M700 receivers and to my astonishment,all of them head spaced within specs. On some of the barrels, the stampings were 180 degrees off. It is a simple to stamp the caliber in an appropriate place. On one rifle, I did for a friend, I faced off the receiver just to insure that is was square, lapped the bolt lugs to insure 100% contact with the receiver, and surface ground the recoil lug to insure it was square and installed the barrel. Again, it head spaced perfectly. It shot into less than 1 MOA. Every rifle, I’ve put take off barrels worked out well. I was able to build a 7mm STW( by rechamdering), a 7mm RM and .338 RUM on a budget. I bought the barrels from CDNN. [/QUOTE]
