N. S. SherlockRemington Model 700/Moder 7 barrel threads
A friend has given me a new Model 700, 22-250 takeoff barrel. I have a 243 Model 7 and am considering replacing the barrel with the 22-250 takeoff. Are the threads compatible? What is involved? I know I'll need a gunsmith to do the work, but I wanted to know. Thanks

Jim KobeIt should work if your gunsmith knows what he is doing. Timing, headspace, a few considerations.
