Will accuracy be affected with barrel removal/reinstall?

    I have a Remington 700 in 6.5CM, I’m ordering a 6GT barrel for it, 26” mtu. My 6.5 hammers, and I thought about keeping it to swap out during hunting season.

    Would I have any major issues that could cause it to change how it shoots a good load by removing it and putting it back on?
     
    Accuracy should not change but you will need to check your zero after each swap.
     
    If it's a shouldered barrel then no problem. I don't know if a Remage type of connection can be consistent.
