Hello looking for advice from the experienced.
I have no idea why but I have always wanted to be able to barrel a rifle. Just one of those bucket list things I suppose. Over the years I have acquired all the stuff lathe, indicators, etc. I have taught myself basic turning threading etc. and have watched video's to no end. Now with great trepidation I want to try to barrel a rifle. I have donor actions 1. commercial Mauser 98 ,2. old Ruger 77 and a already trued rem 700.
My interest is not in ultra precision. I would like to barrel either the Mauser 1st choice, or Ruger 2nd choice but I have been told the 700 is the easiest to have a successful out come for a first timer.
Which action should I start with??
Thanks in advance for your input.
