    Need a recommendation

    I have two friends here in Mobile that are Prairie dog hunters (shooters). One has a Savage target action chambered in 6BR, the other a Cooper in 6BR. Both want new barrels installed (the one with the savage has a Kreiger in hand). They both need these rifles back by June in order to be able...

    Action with set back lug recesses, what would you do?

    Action with set back lug recesses, what would you do?

    Savage 110 action has .003 set back on the bottom lug and .001 on the top. A 308 was fired in a 25-06 chamber. Magnaflux shows no cracks and hardness is 46R. Is re-facing this an option?
