Re-barrel a 308 Stealth......

I find myself in a unique situation where I have and extra 308 Stealth.
I have a desire to move into 6.5 creedmoor and am wondering just how easy is it to rebarrel the Stealth to 6.5 creedmoor.
Is it easy to do?
I am not a gunsmith, but, I have built a few uppers and lowers for my ARs so I kind of know my way around guns.
Any advice or thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

With an action wrench, barrel nut wrench, and go-gauge you'd be all set. Lots of info on this site and youtube on how to do it. Once you're proficient, it's a 10 minute job.

Ditto. Very easy to do. I changed out my first one a while back. I used an action wrench, barrel nut wrench and go/no go gauges I purchased from Northland Shooters Supply when I bought my barrel.

Oh, and if you can build ARs, this will be no problem.
