    Shorter barrel for switch barrel rifle

    I have a SA Defiance Deviant on order and plan to have my 26" 6.5CM barrel that is currently on 700 fitted to the new deviant. So I've been thinking, since this has an intergal lug I can easily make it a switch barrel rifle since all I would have to do is swap the barrels right? I also have a...

    I just recently got a ADM Recon SL for my 30mm Bushnell. I just went back to order a Recon for a 34mm Premier, but the closest options in ring size was 32mm or 35mm.
