One of the great things about the Savage barrel nut system is the ease with which a person with minimal mechanical skills and some fairly inexpensive tools can change the barrel. I just finished changing my first Savage barrel from a .270 sporter, to a .308 varmint and felt a great sense of accomplishment with minimum stress. There is a wealth of information on this forum and Youtube about how this is done and what is required. After some reading, you may want to do it yourself, but at the very least, if you decide to have it done, you will know what is involved, which can save you a trip to the cleaners.
