[QUOTE="tobnpr, post: 2586449, member: 68758"] This. If you already have the barrel vise, action wrench and a go gage- and the knowledge to know how much headspace needs to be increased/decreased. Either way you will still need a smith or machine shop with a surface grinder (to do it "right", though if it's a small amount of removal needed you could probably stone it) to get a lug machined to the exact spec needed. This is by no means as simple as screwing in a nutted barrel...you probably should have a smith handle it. [/QUOTE]
