I can't recall EVER having so many friends & people wanting to help me out....

As of this writting, the rifle in question is on the bench, in pieces & about to get rebarreled to a new & improved .243. I just got my new .223 WSSM barrel & I'm playing "barrel, barrel - WHo gets a new barrel"...

I have one action & bolt that operates like silk with farm fresh butter on it & I have another action that operates as smooth as russian burlap. I'm trying to come up with the right combinations of action, bolt, barrel based on accuracy & what the rifle is designated for (target, hunting, war time activity...)
SO...
There is always that possibility that you may come home one afternoon & trip over it on the way in.

Gotta go back to work. I hate it when my rifles are in pieces all over the shop.
