[QUOTE="Alibiiv, post: 1592059, member: 69192"] What are you trying to accomplish by doing the work yourself? If you're wanting to learn gunsmithing then I suggest that you follow "birdiemc's" suggestions. However I'm thinking that what we're suggesting to you is that unless you have some gunsmithing knowledge, machine shop/tool making skills, a barrel vise, an action wrench, a lathe or access to one, go and no-go headspace gauges you're [U][I]better off not trying[/I][/U] to do the work yourself, send the actions to a gun smith. The costs for just the tools to complete your work are going to be high. Due to the two different actions, I think that you will need two action wrenches plus the barrel vise. If you have to buy the tools to get the job done it will cost a whole lot less to have a gunsmith do the work than trying it yourself. And.....after all is done you might just have to send the action to a gunsmith to install the barrel properly. [/QUOTE]
