Pointer,
I did have the lug pinned. With barrel vice and action wrench, switching barrels is a 10 min job, max.
Alan,
Jon trued the action, but another top notch 'smith did the barrel work for me. I got the EH3 from the Manners ready to ship list and bedded it myself.

Thanks for the info! I have a Savage action, currently a 260 Rem, that I'm thinking of having the lug pinned and getting a couple of extra barrels for. 358 Hoosier would be first as it meets the stupid cartridge restrictions in IN for deer hunting. Any future builds will either have the lug pinned or use an action with an integral lug.
