I've swapped a barrel on an early style 110 from 30/06 to 264 magnum. I have swapped the bolthead and extractor to magnum style, and the extractor does not seem to want to grab the go/no go gauges to pull them out. I'm guessing it will do the same with cases and this will be a problem.

Also, the barrel indexes almost 90 degrees off (this model has sights) when headspace is set correctly. Is there a way a guy w/o machinery can deepen a chamber to get a Savage 110 barrel to index correctly? It would need to go about 85 degrees further. I rented headspace gauges from Elk Ridge Reamers in my hometown. Is there such a thing as reamers that I can use to deepen a chamber by hand or is this a gunsmith only show at this point???

Thanks for any help.
