I got barrel adapters from Geoff when he owned Border barrels but there is a barrel maker here in the U.S. that has adapters. Best bolt action rifles I've ever shot. I...

    Recommend a Recoil Pad

    Pachmayr makes a slip in that is cut on an angle that works great & looks nice. It comes right off if shooting prone or with thick clothing.

    Gunsmithing Opinions on Jet lathe and mill

    Your call but I'd check & I'm not saying it's a deal killer but it may affect the value if any of them are orphened. Jet is bad about doing this. Chevy still makes the Camaro but I don't think the parts will fit my '69. 25 year old asian equip is old. IMHO I'd make a phone call to be sure.
