If I had to I could have a piece machined for this purpose. I'd just would find a load that would work with the shorter/boss removed barrel. replacing it with the CR, I think I'd just save my money and avoid that. I think it was one of those marketing gimics that got me.....its on my .300 win mag, i shoot 180gr from it, they give you recommended settings but they don't give you for every load out there, I figur ejust remove it altogether. that or just leave it. Also wouldnt exposed threads probably be more suseptable to weather? since its probably raw steel, not blued etc....thats why I was thinking a nut to cover the threads and maybe some lock tite would be the trick. |

It's blued underneath. Just get out a hacksaw wack off the barrel after the graduation marks and then using a file and a cone shaped dremel bit and grind a good chamfer in the end of that barrel.

There's only three practical choices here that will maintain the integrity of the barrel. Either buy the BOSS CR (for like under $30), take it to a qualified Gunsmith and have the barrel cut and crowned, or take it to a Gunsmith and buy a new barrel.
Anything else is half assed. |
