It would be a matter of dressing the barrel to draw up snug at top dead center with hand pressure, simultaneously bearing snugly at both places it needs to, then milling the key slot in both the receiver and barrel simultaneously taking care that the slot lines up perfectly with the lug on the forend iron when the iron is snapped into place. Not a terrible job, but not for the faint of heart either.
Then when all that is done, you get to start mixing and matching bolts to create good headspace because the likelihood of headspace being perfect with a bastard barrel is slim to none..
