Mule Deer,
<br>
<br>Thanks for the feedback. I agree that witness marks on take-down rifles work well as has been proven by the functionality of thousands of TD Savage Models 99. I would feel a little more comfortable being able to drop a HS gauge in to get the fit just right.
<br>
<br>Layne Simpson once wrote about a switch-barrel rifle that he had built on a Weatherby Varmintmaster foundation. As I recall, he had barrels in 22-250AI, 250-3000AI, and 7mmSGLC (Simpson's Good Little Cartridge), but he didn't discuss the job of actually changing the barrels. Layne is pretty vague sometimes and his research is pretty shallow sometimes. I sure hate it when "names" write something that is wrong and it becomes "fact" because a "name" wrote it.
<br>
<br>'Hope that you have a successful MT hunting season!
<br>
<br>Sincerely,
<br>
