I am planning on switching barrels later this spring and just wanted to see if there was anyone in the Fort Wayne, IN area that could show my quickly. I know it's very easy with the right equipment and I could probably learn from reading on here, but figured if there was anyone close to me that would be willing to help would be fantastic. Thanks in advance.

I followed this video with no issues on my first swap when I rebuilt a Savage Axis.

No offense, but every mechanics teacher I ever had just screamed in my head when he used the torque wrench to loosen the barrel nut LOL.

Ya I use a breaker bar for loosening the nut, but the video is still a good vid for someone who hasn't done a swap before.

I had one once that would have exceeded the the capacity of that wrench! LOL ;-))

If Dad (RIP) would have caught me using one of his torque wrenches to loosen something I would have had a size 12 boot permanently imbedded in my butt. :p
