Specifically, M70s. I know that barrels for the Rem 700 can be swapped relatively easy. How about the M70s? Does the extractor cut cause problems when installing and headspacing?


I never thought I'd grow up to be a grumpy old man, but I did, and I'm killin' it.

Push-feed to push-feed and control-feed to control-feed is pretty easy. The control-feed barrels have coned breech cuts, so that portion of the barrel needs to be removed to fit them to a push-feed action.

You will probably have to recut the extractor slot and reheadspace.

Send a PM to Redneck. He's done it more than a few times...and is in your home state.

I've got a long list of questions for Lee, guess I'll add it to the list.

I have a stack of pre 64 30-06 barrels if anyone is interested.
