Swapping Barrels...

[jbkf1003]

I think the answer is probably, but what are the chances that if I take a barrel off a post war HRA receiver it will headspace on a 1943 SA stripped receiver? I can move the bolt too.

I have a 30-06 criterion on an HRA that I am thinking of putting a 308 on. The barrel is almost brand new, installed by Tim, and I would use it on a SA build.

Thanks

Indeed, probably.

You have a 50\50 chance. It either will or won't.

Damn I was hoping the probability would be higher... lol :)

I've swapped lots of barrels,and I've never had a bolt not headspace(at least w a field gage).
