Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Rebarreling Marlin X7

The local shop had a used marlin x7 in 30-06 on the shelf for $169. If I didn't already have over a dozen rifles I haven't shot yet....

I already have a Savage barrel nut wrench, so I may pick up one of the generic barrel vises that you clamp down. I have an older 16" South Bend lathe, I may be able to engage the back gear and use it as a makeshift barrel vise...I guess it really depends on how tight the nut is.



If it was in decent shape, I would have made them an offer...

I like this vise for the money. Only used to hold barrels for barrel but swaps. Works good for that.
