[QUOTE="steve smith, post: 21792, member: 110"] Aside for going to the expence of someone (such as HS Precision) make a take down rifle on your 700, you won't be able to get away from a barrel vice and action wrench. There are several different jigs that will align the recoil lug but if you just have one pinned in, misalignment won't be an issue. Now on to the barrels, each barrel will have to be fitted to the action individualy. That will insure propper headspace for each. Once that is done all you will have to do is to switch barrels and or bolts, if you switch case sizes as well. Barrel vices can be made fairly in expensively and the action wrench will cost around $45. But over all it is a very feasible idea, infact I plan on doing something similar with a couple of 700s that I have. [/QUOTE]
