I am wishing to rebarrel a stevens mod. 200 .270 win. With a criterion or a shilen heavy sporter barrel in 6.5x55 caliber. My question is: Will this combination work in a boyds featherweight thumb hole stock? I assume some barrel channel widening would be needed, but is there enough wood to allow this modification?
I am a novice (on this sight, as well as, rebarreling a savage/ stevens) so if this is in the wrong forum i apologize! More experienced builders inpur would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, mark.
