[QUOTE="Garycrow, post: 885595, member: 30743"] How much clearance do you have now between the objective bell and the barrel? If it's a decent amount (say .2" or so) then you should have enough clearance with the new barrel. The difference in diameter between the factory barrel and the heavier barrel isn't going to be as much at the objective bell as it will at the muzzle. The only way to know for sure is wait until it's rebarreled and see if it fits, but my hunch is that it will. FWIW, your nightforce rings are 30mm, not 1" if you're using them with the 5.5-22x56 [/QUOTE]
