[QUOTE="James Jones, post: 183055, member: 8843"] Its not as easy as just screwing on a new barrel , the barrel needs to be fitted to the action so that the bolt is the proper distance away from the barrel shank and this can only be done correctly with a lathe and having your action their to fit check , the the barrel has to be chambered and the action should be their for this also as the headspace has to be set. Their are some "prefit" bharrels out their that are short chambered that you can finish ream at home by hand but It is far from the better way to build a gun. Your best bet is to send you action out and have it barreled correctly , you will end up with alot better job [/QUOTE]
