I just finished my 2nd rebarrel, fitting an Axis .308 barrel to an older Stevens 200 action I have. The finished product shoots beautifully and I have no reason to ever remove that barrel at this point. Having said that, the proper headspace position for the barrel placed the manufacturer's stamped information straight down in the stock, so that you can't see any markings on the barrel at all. In one way, I was glad for that because it looks very clean, but on the other hand, there is no way to tell what caliber the rifle is now.

I intend to give this rifle to my son, and would like to know if anyone has stamped or otherwise indicated the caliber of a barrel on a rifle when the manufacturer's information was not visible? If so, what method worked best for you? Thanks.
