Many of you have probably seen some of my posts inquiring about the 327 Federal.
Here is where I stand on my future project.
I am eyeballing a savage 340, chambered in 222 remington, which I understand to be one of the easier guns to rebarrel.
My goal is to have a barrel blank installed for 327.
I know the magazine won't function without major alterations, if even possible, and that is not overly of any importance.
Can someone tell me exactly what needs to happen to accomplish this?
In my mind, the barrel blank would have to be machined to fit the receiver and stock first, blued, then chambered for 327, then head spaced correctly.
Next would be installing sights or a scope?
Or both.
The only thing I have ever done is turn a 357 mag into a 357 max, so maybe I am overthinking this.
I know there are some damned fine gunsmiths on this site, and would really like a detailed chain of events that need to take place to create my first customized rifle before I start throwing money at it.
And or suggestions.
I also know that turn around time is WAY out there right now.
Any and all comments are welcome.
Thanks in advance.
