[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 2890412, member: 10755"] I built my own rifles as a hobby, and customers too, doing pre-fits is very simple and your list covers it all. The only thing I would mention is the fact that instead of torquing the barrel in place with 100lbs/ft, build it into a switch barrel, then you use a Davidson barrel vice, a rear entry action wrench and change barrels…all that you need to remove doing this is the stock, then clamp the barrel and spin the action off, spin the new barrel on, put it into the vice and nip it up…done. Cheers. [/QUOTE]
